Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland is the most prominent candidate when it comes to replacing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in a potential Liberal leadership race, according to a new poll, while the majority of Canadians say they are unsure who the best potential successor is.
A recent Abacus Data survey for Toronto Star asked 1,500 respondents who they think should replace Mr. Trudeau as Liberal leader if he were to step down. The most prominent response was “don’t know,” with 54 percent of respondents saying they were unsure who the best candidate would be.
