OTTAWA (Reuters) - The leader of a Canadian opposition party said on Tuesday he was working to topple Prime Minister Justin Trudeau but to do so he needs the help of other legislators who have shown little enthusiasm for the idea.

The comments by Bloc Quebecois chief Yves-Francois Blanchet underline the challenges facing Trudeau's minority Liberal government, which is suffering from voter fatigue after nine years and needs the support of other parliamentarians to stay in power.
