Dozens of MPs in Justin Trudeau’s Liberal party agree prime minister should resign

Core of the Liberals have abandoned Canada’s prime minister after last week’s resignation of his deputy

Several Canadian media outlets, including the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and the Toronto Star, reported over the weekend that 51 of Ontario’s Liberal MPs met virtually and agreed collectively that Trudeau’s time in office has expired.
