The front runners for the Liberal leadership are former central banker Mark Carney and ex-Finance Minster Chrystia Freeland, whose abrupt resignation last month forced Trudeau's exit.

Chrystia Freeland blew up the career of her top political ally, Justin Trudeau. Now, she is taking on an old friend, the former central banker Mark Carney.

Chrystia Freeland, the former deputy prime minister, sought to distance herself from Mr. Trudeau in a public letter criticizing him for “costly political gimmicks.”

Former Canadian finance minister Chrystia Freeland on Friday announced that she would take part in the contest to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as leader of the ruling Liberal Party.

Justin Trudeau, who has led the country for nearly a decade, is giving up leadership of the Liberal party. He said he would remain in both roles until his replacement had been chosen through a party election.

Trudeau, under pressure from legislators over the party’s pool poll showing, announced on Jan 6 that he would step down after more than nine years in office.

Liberal member of Parliament Karina Gould, 37, is throwing her hat in the ring to be the next leader of the Liberal Party of Canada.
