OTTAWA – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his leadership of the Liberal party is not in danger, even as members of his caucus prepare to confront him Wednesday in the hopes of convincing him to step down.

He brushed off those concerns as he headed into his regular Tuesday meeting with cabinet ministers.

While members of the cabinet have defended Trudeau staying on as leader, a number of Liberal MPs have signed onto a letter that aims to convince him to step aside before the next election.

It’s not clear how many members of Trudeau’s team of MPs plan to confront him, or exactly what their message will be.

So far Charlottetown MP Sean Casey is the only Liberal to publicly say that he has signed the letter.

Immigration Minister Marc Miller says the MPs’ plans are “garbage” and the issue is taking time away from the Liberal fight against Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives.

For anyone in Bangladesh who loves online casinos, this app is definitely worth checking out. The game selection is diverse, and the graphics are top-notch, providing an authentic casino experience. I downloaded it from 888starz app download, and I’ve had no issues with gameplay or connectivity. The app is regularly updated to fix bugs and add new features, which is a big plus. It’s one of the most reliable gaming apps I’ve used in a while.
