Innovation Minister François-Philippe Champagne has withdrawn from the race to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
He announced to reporters at the Canadian Club in Toronto today that he will not be running in the party's leadership election. Champagne mentioned he had received a lot of support but ultimately decided against running. He described the decision as one of the most difficult of his life.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation as party leader and Prime Minister last week, stating he would step down from both positions after the election of a new leader. The Liberal Party will decide who will replace Trudeau as Prime Minister on March 9.
