Canada’s opposition leader has accused Justin Trudeau’s party of clinging to power to protect their pensions after the prime minister resigned and suspended parliament.
Mr Trudeau, 53, told the country on Monday he would stand down after almost a decade in post, following a Liberal Party leadership election to replace him.
The announcement came amid a crisis at the top of his government, which culminated in the resignation of Chrystia Freeland, his finance minister, and a revolt of Liberal MPs in December.
Nothing has changed.
Every Liberal MP and Leadership contender supported EVERYTHING Trudeau did for 9 years, and now they want to trick voters by swapping in another Liberal face to keep ripping off Canadians for another 4 years, just like Justin.
