Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre demanded on Monday that the government call an immediate election as the Liberals were thrown into chaos by high-profile resignations, saying there is no time to waste with Donald Trump’s inauguration as president just over a month away.
Poilievre said it’s clear “everything is out of control” after finance minister and deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland announced her shocking resignation from cabinet Monday morning, just hours before she was to deliver her fall fiscal update, which she had reportedly clashed with the Prime Minister’s Office over.
