Bloc Québécois Plans to Topple Trudeau’s Government

A Quebec nationalist party aims to collaborate with other opposition parties to unseat Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's minority government. Concerns about rising living costs and Trudeau's leadership have led to the party's support waning. It remains uncertain if enough support will be gathered.

A Quebec nationalist party has announced plans to join forces with other opposition parties in Canada's Parliament to potentially unseat Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's minority government. Trudeau's Liberals are currently dependent on an opposition party to pass legislation due to their lack of a majority.

With parliamentary elections looming, Trudeau is vying for a fourth term while his party lags behind the Conservatives in polls. Frustration over rising living costs post-pandemic has added to the Liberals' struggles. The Bloc Québécois leader claims Trudeau's "days are numbered" following unmet demands related to seniors' old age security payments.

Despite the uncertainty, the New Democratic Party, which has supported Trudeau's Liberals, will continue to decide based on individual bills. Meanwhile, internal conversations within the Liberal Party have emerged about leadership challenges, especially after recent electoral setbacks in Toronto and Montreal.
