Amid a decline in popularity, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faces a challenge by separatist leader Yves-Francois Blanchet
OTTAWA - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s bid to win re-election next month appeared increasingly uncertain on Thursday after a campaign debate that was dominated by a powerful regional opponent.
This could hurt the Liberals, who hold 40 of the province’s 78 seats. They are targeting another 10 amid the collapse of the minority New Democrats, a left-leaning opposition party that competes for the same segment of the electorate as Trudeau. Working with the avowedly separatist Bloc poses a risk for federal parties committed to keeping Canada together.
“In most cases we could negotiate gains for Quebec in the context of a minority government,” he told reporters.
