Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Faces Setback as Key Ally Withdraws Support
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced a serious setback as NDP leader Jagmeet Singh withdrew party support for the Liberal government. Trudeau now needs other opposition support to pass budgets and survive confidence votes. Singh ended a 2022 deal supporting Trudeau until mid-2025, criticizing the Liberals for their failure to counter the Conservative opposition and for favoring corporate interests.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau experienced a significant setback when the New Democratic Party (NDP) leader Jagmeet Singh announced the withdrawal of his party's support for the minority Liberal government.
This development complicates Trudeau's efforts to pass budgets and survive confidence votes as he now needs to seek support from other opposition legislators in the House of Commons.
Singh's decision effectively ends a deal struck in 2022, which had ensured Trudeau's power until mid-2025 in exchange for increased social spending.
Singh criticized the Liberals for their inability to combat the Conservative opposition and for prioritizing corporate interests.
Trudeau, who has been in office since November 2015, is reportedly facing voter fatigue, a sentiment echoed within the third-placed NDP.
