"The Great State of Canada is stunned as the Finance Minister resigns, or was fired, from her position by Governor Justin Trudeau," Trump posted on Truth Social."Her behavior was totally toxic, and not at all conducive to making deals which are good for the very unhappy citizens of Canada. She will not be missed!!!"Trump previously trolled Trudeau by calling Canada a state.

Trudeau faces calls to resignJagmeet Singh, leader of the opposition New Democratic Party which Trudeau's ruling Liberals have relied upon to stay in power, called for him to resign earlier Monday.The main opposition Conservatives have not called for Trudeau's resignation but demand an election. Freeland warns against 'costly political gimmicks'Freeland and Trudeau disagreed about a two-month sales tax holiday and 250 Canadian dollar checks to Canadians that were recently announced. Freeland said Canada is dealing with Trump's threat to impose sweeping 25% tariffs and should eschew"costly political gimmicks" it can"ill afford.""Our country is facing a grave challenge," Freeland said in her letter.

The statement shows a much larger deficit than expected for the fiscal year and more than a billion for border security.Can Trudeau survive?Trudeau has said he plans on leading the Liberal Party into the next election, but many party members have said they don't want him to run for a fourth term, and Freeland's departure was a huge blow.

But Canadians are now frustrated by the rising cost of living and other issues, including immigration increases following the country's emergence from the COVID-19 pandemic.
