Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is under increasing pressure from within his own party as several Liberal MPs plan to confront him over declining poll numbers during a caucus meeting.
This internal dissent has sparked speculation about potential leadership changes, with former B.C. premier Christy Clark expressing interest in replacing Trudeau if he steps down. The situation comes as Trudeau's leadership is being scrutinized, and his ability to maintain party unity is in question.
Meanwhile, former Trudeau cabinet minister Jane Philpott has been recruited by Ontario Premier Doug Ford to address the province's family doctor shortage, adding another layer of political maneuvering around Trudeau's leadership.

It’s no surprise Trudeau’s facing internal pushback — his government has been dropping the ball on key progressive issues like climate action and Indigenous rights. If the Liberals want to keep power, they better listen to their base and start delivering on the promises they’ve been making for years.
