As more MPs call for his resignation, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will enter 2025 facing historic lows in support for his party and his personal popularity.

TORONTO:

In recent days, the entire Liberal Party caucus from Atlantic Canada, minus cabinet ministers from the region, called upon Trudeau to resign immediately. Earlier, Indo-Canadian MP from Alberta, George Chahal, made a similar demand, following the entire caucus from Ontario, again sans Ministers, seeking the PM's exit. The Quebec caucus has also informed Trudeau that it has reached a consensus he should leave, the outlet iPolitics reported.

In all, over half the 153 MPs from the ruling party in the House of Commons, are now asking for an early departure from Trudeau so a new leader can helm the next Federal election campaign. That poll is scheduled for October 2025 but given the fragility of the Trudeau government, it is expected to occur as soon as this spring.
