Quebec Liberal MPs are calling for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step down before the next federal election, Global News has learned.

The Quebec caucus has been discussing the prime minister’s fate amongst themselves since the House of Commons rose for the winter break on Dec. 17 , a source with direct knowledge of the discussions told Global News .

The Ontario and Atlantic Liberal caucuses have also called for Trudeau to resign.

The fast-approaching inauguration on Jan. 20 of U.S. president-elect Donald Trump — who has threatened to impose 25 per cent tariffs on all Canadian imports — puts additional pressure on Trudeau to either ensure stability of government or allow Canadians to choose a new one, Turnbull added. “The timing of all this is really, really unfortunate,” she said. —With files from Global’s Mercedes Stephenson , Heidi Petracek , David Akin and Uday Rana .
