BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

Trudeau to face another no-confidence vote as resignation calls pile

The Canadian Parliament is set to hold another no-confidence vote against Trudeau's government as approval dwindles.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau might face another no-confidence vote as calls for his resignation keep mounting, particularly after Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland's resignation earlier this month, according to reports on Saturday. 

Freeland’s resignation, after nearly a decade as one of Trudeau's closest allies, has led the Prime Minister to consult intensively with advisors. While elections are scheduled for October 2025, many anticipate they could occur much sooner.

The Parliament's Public Accounts Committee is set to hold a meeting on January 7 to consider a no-confidence motion against Trudeau’s government, stated John Williamson, the panel's Conservative chair.

"It is now clear that the Liberal government does not have the confidence of parliament," Williamson announced on his X account. 

Public Accounts will meet starting January 7 to address a motion of non-confidence in the Government.

The committee’s non-confidence report will be tabled in Parliament on Jan. 27 and could be voted on by Jan. 30.

The committee consists of five Liberal MPs, four Conservative members, and one representative each from the NDP and Bloc Québécois. 

The vote’s outcome is expected to be presented to the House of Commons on January 27, when Parliament resumes after its six-week winter break. According to Williamson, a no-confidence motion could take place as soon as January 30. 

The Conservatives already initiated two consecutive no-confidence motions against the government, which survived with backing from its coalition partner, the NDP. Meanwhile, reports suggest that over 50 Liberal MPs have agreed that Trudeau should step down as the party leader.

Trudeau, who came to power in 2015, has led the Liberals to two additional electoral victories in 2019 and 2021. However, public opinion polls now show him trailing Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre by 20 points, following a year in which the Liberals lost four by-elections.

A recent Ipsos poll revealed that over half of Canadians believe opposition parties should remove the government "at the earliest opportunity" and call for an early election. The survey also highlighted a decline in the Prime Minister's popularity, with 77% of respondents stating they think it's time for a new party to take charge.
