Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has resigned from Prime Minister Trudeau's cabinet, a shocking move that has shaken the current government. Prior to this, Trudeau attempted to reassign Freeland to other positions. Freeland has been one of the most powerful figures in Trudeau's cabinet for years, playing a key role in formulating a response to the 25% tariff threat posed by Trump, the newly elected President of the USA. She announced her resignation on X on Monday, just hours before she was scheduled to update Parliament on the financial and economic situation. Trudeau has experienced the departure of two finance ministers in just over four years. Freeland took office in 2020 after then-finance minister Bill Morneau clashed with Trudeau over expenditures related to pandemic income support programs.
