Chrystia Freeland resigns as finance minister criticizing ‘costly political gimmicks’

OTTAWA — Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has resigned from cabinet on the same day she was meant to table the Liberal government’s fall economic statement.

“To be effective, a minister must speak on behalf of the prime minister and with his full confidence. In making your decision, you made clear that I no longer credibly enjoy that confidence and possess the authority that comes with it.” “For the past number of weeks, you and I have found ourselves at odds about the best path forward for Canada,” she wrote.

Freeland was first elected MP for Toronto Centre in 2013. She was re-elected three times in the newer riding of University–Rosedale, holding numerous positions under the Trudeau government, including the trade, foreign affairs and intergovernmental affairs files. She has been Trudeau’s deputy since 2019.Just the latest lost cabinet minister Freeland is not the first finance minister the prime minister has lost in recent years, nor the only woman to leave cabinet under a cloud of controversy.

“You blink and you miss it, so I’m going to spend more time with the people I love most,” Fraser said.
