Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been leading his nation down the globalist path for nearly a decade, and now he faces opposition from an unlikely source. Sources claim that dozens of Liberal Party MPs have signed a petition asking him to step down as the leader of the party and apparently plan to confront him at Wednesday’s caucus meeting.

Some members of Trudeau’s caucus are apparently dissatisfied with his response (or lack thereof) to by-election losses over the summer, particularly the loss of the seat for Toronto-St.Paul, which had been a liberal stronghold. Additionally, Liberals lost key races in Winnipeg and Montreal and four Cabinet ministers recently announced that they would not be running for reelection. Trudeau then avoided the House of Commons Question Period in the week prior to the October break week, instead taking a trip to Laos.

“The message that I’ve been getting loud and clear, and more and more strongly as time goes by, is that it is time for [Trudeau] to go,” Sean Casey, a Liberal MP from Prince Edward Island told CBC last week. “And I agree.”

“People have had enough. They’ve tuned him out and they want him to go,” Casey added.

“Election Interference”

Thus far, Trudeau vows to remain in his post and has focused his attention on alleged Chinese election interference on behalf of Conservatives and the international dust-up between India and Canada involving possible crimes by Indian diplomats that prompted New Delhi to withdraw several diplomats and expel six Canadian diplomats.

Regarding the election interference, Trudeau accused several unnamed Conservatives of misdeeds with Communist China.

“I have the names of a number of parliamentarians, former parliamentarians and/or candidates in the Conservative Party of Canada who are engaged, or at high risk of, or for whom there is clear intelligence around, foreign interference,” the prime minister told the Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference. Some considered the accusations a way of distracting the public from Trudeau’s party woes.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre accused Trudeau of “lying,” and demanded that the prime minister release the names of the suspected Conservative n’er-do-wells.

“My message to Justin Trudeau is: release the names of all MPs that have collaborated with foreign interference,” Poilievre wrote. “But he won’t. Because Justin Trudeau is doing what he always does: he is lying.”

Trudeau eventually admitted that MPs from other parties, including his own, were also vulnerable to foreign interference activities, yet he only singled out Conservative MPs.

50 MPs

Trudeau allies downplayed any trouble for the prime minister from other Liberal Party members: “In any caucus, there is going to be a wide range of views. I am absolutely confident that the vast majority of members of our caucus support the prime minister,” Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said during a press conference in Winnipeg.

While Freeland assures the press and anyone else who will listen that Trudeau’s popularity in his caucus remains high, The Post Millennial reports that “perhaps as many as 50” Liberal MPs are ready to confront Trudeau and insist he step down as leader of the party. If that’s true, with 153 Liberal MPs in the Canadian Parliament, it means that nearly a third of his own party wants him gone. No wonder Trudeau wants to change the subject.
