Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says he won’t resign as Liberal leader if his party loses the upcoming byelection in Montreal.

Montreal’s LaSalle–Émard–Verdun district will be holding a byelection on Sept. 16. It’s a seat Liberal MP and former Minister of Justice David Lametti had held since 2015. Lametti resigned at the end of January.
