Liberal MP Alexandra Mendès says “dozens and dozens” of her constituents want Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to resign as party leader.

“My constituents do not see Mr. Trudeau as the person who should lead the party into the next election, and that’s the message that I carry,” Mendès, a Quebec MP, said in a Sept. 9 interview with Radio-Canada.
