  Deputy Prime Minister Freeland said in a statement that PM Trudeau told her he no longer wants her to serve as Finance Minister and offered another position in cabinet, leading to her resignation.

The resignation of Chrystia Freeland as Finance Minister has triggered significant turmoil within the Liberal Party, leading to calls for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step down. Freeland's departure, announced unexpectedly, has left the party in disarray, with many Liberal MPs expressing frustration over the lack of communication and the timing of the announcement. Her exit comes amidst ongoing economic challenges and a dip in the party's popularity. Critics within the party argue that Trudeau's leadership has become a liability, pointing to recent electoral losses and a perceived disconnect with the public. The situation has escalated with some senior Liberals openly discussing the need for a leadership review, fearing that Trudeau's continued tenure could lead to further losses in upcoming elections. Meanwhile, Trudeau has remained defiant, insisting on his commitment to lead the party into the next election, though the internal pressure and public scrutiny continue to mount.
