Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Liberals Consider Power Shift Just Weeks After Carney's Win

Caption: Liberals Consider Power Shift Just Weeks After Carney’s Win. Mark Carney was sworn in as Canada’s prime minister less than a month ago, but some Liberal MPs are already discussing how to fire him though they insist, it’s not personal - According to Politico. At their first post-election meeting, Liberals will vote on whether to adopt key provisions of the Reform Act, giving themselves the power to remove the party leader — a move never embraced under Justin Trudeau. Support for Carney remains strong, but many MPs say this vote is about preventing a repeat of Trudeau’s long, unchecked hold on power. MPs say it’s a symbolic step — a show of confidence in Carney, while also rebalancing power between the caucus and the Prime Minister’s Office. The outcome may hinge on whether the vote is held by secret ballot — no one wants to look like they’re hiding a knife behind the new PM’s back.
