Trudeau to Resign: End of an Era in Canadian Politics
Facing a caucus revolt and plummeting poll numbers, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce his resignation as Liberal Party Leader as early as Monday. Sources suggest this decision, made before a crucial caucus meeting, aims to avoid the appearance of being forced out. The Liberal Party’s plan to replace Trudeau remains unclear, with options including an interim leader or a leadership contest which would necessitate proroguing Parliament. The timing is complicated by an upcoming supply vote and the need to navigate the incoming Trump administration.
