A group of lawmakers within Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s governing Liberal Party is organizing to pressure him to step down, according to news reports.
Members of parliament held meetings in the capital, Ottawa, this week and have been asked to sign a document pledging to stand together in calling for a change in leadership, according to a report Friday from CBC News, which cited people who weren’t identified. “At least” 20 MPs have signed the document, according to CBC.
