Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will meet with his ministers in Halifax on Sunday for the annual cabinet retreat, a gathering that comes after a year of dire polling for the government and disquiet among some Liberal MPs.

Some of those MPs are now calling for big changes — and for the prime minister to publicly show signs of contrition.

Cabinet is meeting for three days and is expected to tackle pocketbook issues and seek to strengthen Canada’s relationship with the United States ahead of the House of Commons’ return in September.

“The number one thing I think we need to do is to remain grounded in the experience of people who live in our communities,” Housing Minister Sean Fraser said Monday.
