Liberal Party members have reportedly delivered a clear message to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau during a tense, three-and-a-half-hour caucus meeting on Oct. 23: resign as party leader on Oct. 28 or face potential action.
Earlier this October, around 20 anxious Liberal Party members signed a document calling on Trudeau to be removed as party leader and prime minister following disappointing by-election results in supposed safe Liberal strongholds in Toronto and Montreal.

“Pressure is building on the prime minister and his office as a growing number of anxious Liberal MPs are coordinating efforts to force Justin Trudeau to step down as Liberal Party leader,” a CBC News report stated.
However, the document, which serves as a “vehicle to secure commitment” from MPs advocating for new leadership, was handed to Trudeau, unsigned by its reported 20 supporters during the caucus meeting on Oct. 23.
“The letter – which two MPs confirmed did not include the signatures of those who signed – recognized Trudeau’s accomplishments in office, but said MPs felt compelled to share feedback from constituents and asked that he respond positively to the call for him to step down,” the National Post report stated.
The document, with no copies being circulated, urged him to consider resignation due to ongoing and escalating pressure from their constituents, especially after recent losses in Toronto and Montreal by-elections.
During the caucus meeting, approximately 60 MPs spoke, with half of them reportedly calling for Trudeau’s resignation. But despite the ultimatum from his party members, the consequences Trudeau may face if he declines to step down remain unclear.
The public call for Trudeau to step down from leadership emerged as Liberal MPs, including former?cabinet ministers, vacated their seats and announced they would not be running for reelection.
For instance, Liberal MP Sean Casey of Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island publicly criticized the leadership of Trudeau and voiced support for new party leadership. He even declared that Trudeau’s time as prime minister had ended.
“My job has always been to project the voice of the people I represent in Ottawa, to be Charlottetown’s representative in Ottawa and not the reverse,” he told CBC News. “And the message that I’ve been getting loud and clear and more and more strongly as time goes by is that it’s time for him to go. And I agree.”
Casey is the second MP to raise concerns about Trudeau’s leadership following Montreal Liberal MP Anthony Housefather, who shared with CTV News that it was time for the Liberal Party to consider new leadership for the 2025 election.
“I support whoever is leader in my party at all times,” Casey said. “But that doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be a robust caucus discussion about who the best person to lead us in the next election is, and that discussion should happen in caucus. It shouldn’t happen in the media.”
