Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he will continue as Liberal leader past the Oct. 28 deadline given by some MPs calling for his resignation at the latest caucus meeting.

Trudeau was asked by reporters during an Oct. 24 press conference if he would remain as leader of the Liberal Party. He was also asked specifically if he'll stay on as leader after Oct. 28, which was reportedly a deadline stipulated in a letter handed to him at a widely anticipated caucus meeting on Oct. 23.
