Ex-Canada minister claims of being expelled from ruling Liberal party caucus

A former Canadian cabinet minister at the center of a political crisis facing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Tuesday that she had been expelled from the ruling Liberals' parliamentary caucus.

The Liberals have been in turmoil since Jody Wilson-Raybould said in February that officials had inappropriately pressured her to ensure a major construction company escaped a corruption trial when she was justice minister last year.
