Liberal Party of Canada sets March 9 for selection of leader to replace Trudeau

Transportation Minister Anita Anand, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly and new Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc have said they will not run, but globalist-linked banker Mark Carney announced that he will vie for the Liberal leadership campaign.

The Liberal Party of Canada will choose its next leader, who will automatically become Prime Minister, on March 9.

In a announcement last week, the Liberal Party said that anyone who wants to join the leadership race must do so by January 23 but must pay a $350,000 entrance fee.

Anyone who wants to vote in the party leader election must be an official member no later than January 27.

It was previously reported that party membership was open to non-citizens living in Canada. This is still the case, but the party has tightened the rules somewhat. Now, to be a member of the Liberal Party, one must be over age 14 and be either a citizen or a permanent resident living in Canada. Also, anyone holding a membership in any other federal party cannot be a Liberal Party member.

The leadership race is now gearing up after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced he would resign.

Thus far, some high-profile current Liberal cabinet ministers such as Transportation Minister Anita Anand, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly and new Finance Minister Dominic LeBlanc have said they will not run for party leadership.

Globalist-linked banker Mark Carney announced Thursday at a news conference, which independent media were banned from attending, that he will run for the Liberal leadership campaign.

In early January, Trudeau announced that he plans to step down as Liberal Party leader once a new leader has been chosen. He was approved by Governor General Mary Simon to prorogue parliament until March 24. This means he is still serving as prime minister, but all parliamentary business has been stopped.

In all likelihood, once parliament resumes, the Liberal Party, with a new PM in tow, will fall in a non-confidence vote as all opposition parties have promised to bring down the government. This will trigger an election, with all polls pointing to the Conservative Party under Pierre Poilievre winning in a landslide.

Trump fires chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff, appoints new military leader

President Donald Trump announced Friday the dismissal of General Charles Brown, the current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump expressed his gratitude toward Brown for his extensive contributions and leadership, wishing him and his family a prosperous future. Brown’s departure marks a pivotal moment in U.S. military leadership following over 40 years of service.

“I want to thank General Charles “CQ” Brown for his over 40 years of service to our country, including as our current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He is a fine gentleman and an outstanding leader, and I wish a great future for him and his family,” Trump wrote.

Simultaneously, Trump introduced his nominee for Brown’s successor.

“Today, I am honored to announce that I am nominating Air Force Lieutenant General Dan “Razin” Caine to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. General Caine is an accomplished pilot, national security expert, successful entrepreneur, and a “warfighter” with significant interagency and special operations experience,” Trump said.

Trump said Caine’s appointment comes after he was overlooked for advancement during former President Joe Biden’s presidency.

“General Caine was passed over for promotion by Sleepy Joe Biden. But not anymore! Alongside Secretary Pete Hegseth, General Caine and our military will restore peace through strength, put America First, and rebuild our military,” Trump said. President Trump also announced plans to appoint five additional senior military officials, tasks he has delegated to Secretary Hegseth.

It was reported Thursday that Hegseth plans to dismiss Brown as part of President Trump’s commitment to eliminate “wokeness” from the military. Brown reportedly appears on a list of proposed removals submitted to Congress.

Brown had previously expressed his wish to retain his position even after Trump took office, and according to sources speaking to NBC News in Dec. 2024, Trump seemingly moderated his views on the general. Biden nominated Brown as chairman in 2023, and despite a heated confirmation hearing where senators scrutinized his alleged implementation of racial quotas in Air Force hiring practices, he was confirmed.

Meanwhile, Brown’s replacement, Caine, took office as the associate director for Military Affairs at the CIA on Nov. 3, 2021, after serving as the director of Special Programs at the Pentagon. Lt. Gen. Dan Caine, an F-16 pilot with extensive experience including over 150 combat hours, was commissioned in 1990 and has held numerous key roles, from the White House staff to special operations, and balances his military career with entrepreneurial ventures.
