Indian-Origin MP Chandra Arya Announces Bid for Canadian Prime Minister

Chandra Arya, a Liberal MP from Nepean, outlines plans for a smaller government, economic reforms, and a shift to a sovereign republic after Justin Trudeau's resignation.

Chandra Arya, originally from Karnataka, India, has officially entered the race to replace Justin Trudeau as Canada's Prime Minister and Liberal Party leader.
Arya's platform includes transitioning Canada to a sovereign republic, raising the retirement age, and implementing a citizenship-based tax system.
He has pledged to focus on addressing affordability issues, rebuilding the economy, and creating equal opportunities for Canadians.
Arya has emphasized merit-based cabinet appointments and criticized diversity quotas in government hiring practices.
The leadership race follows Trudeau's resignation, with Arya joining former MP Frank Baylis as a declared contender, while Chrystia Freeland is expected to announce her candidacy soon.
