As Justin Trudeau faces political troubles at home, a Canadian newspaper has reported that a close aide of the prime minister leaked “intel” to the Washington Post before the police held an official briefing.

Notably, this intelligence was not scheduled for public release until RCMP Commissioner Mike Duheme's planned news conference on Thanksgiving Day.

Canadian national security adviser Nathalie Drouin and deputy minister David Morrison reportedly briefed The Washington Post on India's alleged interference in Canada days before RCMP's public accusations of connections to homicides and violent crimes.

Canada’s deputy prime minister says he believes Justin Trudeau has the support of the majority of Liberals in Parliament as some prepare to confront him Wednesday in the hopes of convincing him to step down.

Ahead of a Liberal caucus meeting Wednesday, where some MPs are expected to express concerns about Justin Trudeau's leadership, his cabinet is expressing support.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will face down his own caucus members in a hotly anticipated meeting this morning, as several of them plan to try to convince him to step aside.
