Ontario Liberal MPs Urge Trudeau to Resign Amidst Internal Turmoil

In a recent virtual meeting, over 50 Ontario Liberal MPs reached a consensus that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau should step down as party leader. This decision comes in the wake of Chrystia Freeland's dramatic resignation from her cabinet positions, which has intensified calls for Trudeau's departure.
