Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly said she won’t enter the leadership race to succeed Justin Trudeau as prime minister.

Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly on Friday announced she would not run in the race to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, saying she wanted to focus on the threat posed by potential U.S. tariffs.

Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly won’t run in the Liberal leadership race because she feels her duty is to the country and dealing with the incoming Trump administration and the threat of massive tariffs on Canadian goods.

Canada's ruling Liberal Party is looking for a new leader to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who announced on Monday he intended to step down. The name of the winner will be released on March 9.
