Summary

Jagmeet Singh announced plans to introduce a motion to topple Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government.

Singh’s announcement comes after a difficult week for Trudeau, who is facing growing calls to resign from his own Liberal Party following the exit of his most senior cabinet minister.

The move marks a turn for the NDP leader, whose centre-left party helped prop up Trudeau’s minority government in exchange for support on their shared political priorities.

    It’s difficult to call for Trudeau to resign and also vote that you have confidence in Trudeau as a leader. Obviously he doesn’t want to hand the government to the Conservatives but supporting Trudeau wasn’t winning any favours either.
