Growing pressure on Trudeau for action after Freeland’s resignation

There’s growing pressure tonight for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to resign or call an election following a chaotic day for his government.

He’s had little reaction so far to the sudden resignation of finance minister Chrystia Freeland, who accused Trudeau’s government of political gimmicks in its handling of the economy.

People are waiting to see if he has anything to say about his next step or whether he’s going to try to ride this out.

President-elect Donald Trump is watching all this from the U.S. and adding to the chaos with his latest social media post, characterized as mocking Canada and Trudeau.
