Following an Atlantic Liberal caucus meeting the morning of Dec. 23, caucus chair Kody Blois wrote a letter to Trudeau calling for him to resign as party leader

Kody Blois, chair of the Atlantic Liberal caucus, said that his colleagues instructed him to write to the Prime Minister when they met before Christmas. He told Mr. Trudeau the meeting had focused “on the need for you to resign as the Leader of the Liberal Party” to allow a process to begin to replace him.
