The Chester-St. Margaret’s MLA said Sunday he 'made the difficult decision to resign from the Nova Scotia Liberal Caucus' so as not to disrupt 'important work.'

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says it's a day of celebrating wins and also mourning losses as the Liberals seek to chart a new course.

Liberal MNAs are mapping out their strategy prior to 43rd parliamentary session scheduled to begin Sept. 17.

Global News reached out to the MP's office, but she was not available for comment.

Former cabinet minister Jane Philpott says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau violated the law when he expelled her and Jody Wilson-Raybould from the Liberal caucus.

Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott are staying mum on their political futures but have defended their actions in raising alarms in the SNC-Lavalin scandal.

Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott are out of the Liberal Party caucus.

In a letter shared with the Liberal caucus on Tuesday, Wilson-Raybould defended her commitment to the party's pledge to do politics differently.

"They've said that they believe that they still want to follow what our Liberal Party has been doing... but it will come down to caucus to come to that conclusion," said Morneau.

Justin Trudeau has a unity problem — party unity. But as Global's chief political correspondent David Akin notes, Trudeau won't even acknowledge the problem.
