In a stunning and chaotic development, Prime Minister Coolrhorace has resigned after just six weeks in office, marking it a short and tumultuous tenure Canadians have seen in quite some time. Senate Government Leader and Deputy Conservative Party Leader Wubbersordie was officially sworn in this afternoon as Canada's 87th Prime Minister at Rideau Hall after meeting with His Excellency the Governor General.

The collapse of Coolrhorace’s government — a government that had been widely criticized for legislative inactivity and internal disorganization — comes after a series of cascading events that signaled a complete breakdown in leadership and governance. An Explosive Departure
On Monday, a handwritten note was discovered atop the Prime Minister’s desk at 24 Sussex, left behind by Coolrhorace before his sudden disappearance from public life. The note paints a grim picture of dysfunction, exhaustion, and hopelessness within the federal government:
"When I took over from Prime Minister Marcfremwell, there was nothing left of our civil service, with only the GAC in operational state. I attempted a last hurrah, bolstering the civil service with new recruits and changing out the heads of departments. But that did not last long. I am tired, exhausted, and done with trying to sustain activity within the group. Nothing has changed, and no amount of legislation, SSU, or personnel changes at the top will do anything."
Coolrhorace lamented the lack of operational infrastructure, internal disunity, and waning activity, ultimately declaring that "drastic measures" would be needed to save the nation’s political institutions. The note effectively served as a resignation letter — though no formal announcement was made — leaving the Conservative Party and the country scrambling for leadership. A Government in Shambles
The resignation came only one day after Justice Minister and Attorney General Ijozejisiah resigned from Cabinet, citing undisclosed personal and professional conflicts. His departure further highlighted the instability within Coolrhorace’s ministry, which had already been grappling with plummeting public approval ratings, legislative gridlock, and an inability to maintain quorum in Parliament on multiple occasions.
Since Coolrhorace’s swearing-in on March 4, 2025, his government has only passed a single piece of legislation in the time in office. Critics from across the political spectrum noted the administration's chronic failure to present a clear legislative agenda, with many bills seen as minor amendments or cosmetic rewrites that did little to address the growing challenges facing the nation.
Several small bills — minor amendments to the CBC Act, and a new mock trial act — were sent to Senate committees for further review but were nowhere near final passage. Meanwhile, major priorities outlined vaguely in the Throne Speech. But although, given that one piece of legislation in that was the Immigration Act, it still remains the only piece that has been passed and signed into law. New Leadership, Uncertain Future
The swearing-in of Wubbersordie as Prime Minister represents a desperate attempt by the Conservative Party to stabilize the situation. He inherits a fractured government, an exhausted civil service, and a Parliament teetering on dysfunction.
There has been no official statement yet from the Prime Minister’s Office regarding the full circumstances of Coolrhorace’s departure or the plans for Wubbersordie's government. A full Cabinet shuffle is expected in the coming days, with sources indicating a significant overhaul of ministerial posts and possibly new appointments to fill vacant seats.
The Liberal Party, under leader PolyIsaac, and the New Democratic Party, under Whatdoyoulookinatp, have yet to issue public responses to the upheaval. CBC News has reached out to both party leaders for comment.

A Conservative Party in Crisis
This leadership disaster follows what was already a volatile period for the Conservative Party, which took power earlier this year with a 12-seat majority after the Liberals' collapse under former Prime Minister MarcFremwell — who was found guilty in his trial and sentenced to 20 days in federal prison.
Rather than ushering in a new era of stability, the Conservatives now find themselves battling the perception of incompetence and chaos at a time when Canadians are increasingly frustrated with the lack of action on critical issues like economic recovery, immigration reform, and national security.
What's Next?
With Parliament set to reconvene later this week, all eyes are on Prime Minister Wubbersordie and whether he can quickly assemble a functioning government, set a clear legislative agenda, and restore public confidence. Failure to do so could risk further destabilization — and potentially, another federal election.
The stakes could not be higher for a country facing mounting internal and external challenges.
