 Trudeau's ally says will vote to bring down Canadian government

Leader of Canada’s New Democratic Party (NDP) Jagmeet Singh, a key ally keeping Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's party in power, declared on Friday that he will vote in favor of a

no-confidence motion

against Trudeau.
Singh made the announcement through an open letter, which comes after his party withdrew its support for Trudeau's government earlier this year.
In his letter, Singh sharply criticised Trudeau’s leadership, saying, “Justin Trudeau failed in the biggest job a Prime Minister has: to work for people, not the powerful.”
He highlighted the NDP's resolve to bring down the government and provide Canadians with an opportunity to "vote for a government that would work in their best interests".

"The Canadian dream is a good job that gets you a home and a fridge full of groceries with enough left over to save for vacations. A country where health care is always there as soon as you need it. I believe every Canadian deserves that," Singh wrote.
He contended that the Liberals had let Canadians down by not following through on their promises, despite initially offering hopeful rhetoric.
Should all opposition parties unite in favor of a no-confidence motion, it would trigger an election and end Trudeau's hold on power.
The

Canadian House of Commons

is currently on a winter break, meaning a formal no-confidence motion cannot be introduced until after legislators return on January 27, 2025.
Meanwhile, as pressure mounts on Trudeau, reports suggest that the Prime Minister is preparing for a major cabinet reshuffle. According to a report by CBC News, Ottawa MP David McGuinty and Toronto MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith are expected to be appointed to key cabinet positions in a reshuffle that may affect up to 10 members of the government.
