Liberal MP says her constituents are ‘very adamant’ Justin Trudeau needs to go

‘I heard it from dozens and dozens of people — he’s no longer the right leader,’ Alexandra Mendes says

Quebec Liberal MP Alexandra Mendes said Monday she’s heard from “dozens and dozens” of constituents over the summer telling her it’s time for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step aside after nearly nine years at the top.

Speaking to Radio-Canada, CBC’s French-language service, on the sidelines of the Liberal caucus retreat in Nanaimo, B.C., Mendes said her constituents are “very adamant the prime minister needs to go.”
