On October 23, 2023, during a caucus meeting, 24 members of the Canadian Liberal Party publicly presented a letter demanding that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau make a decision on whether he will continue as party leader by October 28. If he does not comply, they warned of potential repercussions.
In response, Trudeau stated that the Liberal Party remains “strong and united.” Sources close to him added that he indicated he needs some time to think about his options.
Reports suggest that while Trudeau may choose to stay on as leader, the consequences of ignoring the October 28 deadline remain unclear. Additionally, some Liberal MPs have begun discussions about potentially ousting Trudeau to prevent the party from failing in the upcoming federal election.
Polls indicate that the support for Trudeau’s Liberal Party has been declining, raising concerns that they may lose the election. This outcome could lead to dozens of Liberal MPs losing their seats in the next election.
