Chrystia Freeland stepped down as Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister of Canada on Monday.

Bidyot Bhowmik   CBNA news Desk | Chrystia Freeland’s shocking resignation as Finance Minister in Canada sparks reactions from all sides. Chrystia Freeland’s shocking resignation prompts a political crisis for Prime minister Justine Trudeau in Canada.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced frustrated MPs at a hastily arranged caucus meeting late Monday following Chrystia Freeland’s shocking decision to resign from cabinet just before she was to deliver the government’s much-anticipated fall economic statement.

About 15 MPs took to the microphone to address Trudeau at that meeting, according to one Liberal MP who was in the room. Most of the speakers told Justn Trudeau to step down after mismanaging his once-crucial relationship with Freeland, the outgoing deputy prime minister, the MP said. But some MPs who previously were on the fence — or even defended the prime minister in the past — are now coming forward to say it’s time to turn the page on the Trudeau era.

Liberal sources told CBC News that Trudeau said he heard their concerns and would take time over the next few days to reflect on his future. Trudeau said much the same thing after nearly two dozen MPs called on him to leave earlier this fall. He ended up rejecting those calls to leave the next day.

Dominic LeBlanc was sworn in as finance minister following Freeland’s abrupt departure — an apparent attempt by Trudeau to deploy a close confidant as he struggles to shore up his shaky government and restore some stability.
