Justin Trudeau Faces Pressure Following Chrystia Freeland’s Resignation Over Trade Disputes
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is exploring all options after the resignation of Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland amid disagreements over Donald Trump’s threats to impose 25% tariffs on Canadian goods. Calls for Trudeau’s resignation are coming from Conservative Party leaders and the Bloc Québécois. Freeland’s departure raises concerns about Canada’s economic strategy during a critical period. In her resignation letter, Freeland highlighted a loss of trust between herself and Trudeau, marking a significant shift in the Canadian government’s approach to economic nationalism from the new U.S. administration.
