Canada’s Trudeau to resign early this week: Report
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will announce his resignation as leader of the country’s Liberal Party early this week, Canadian media reported.
According to a report from the Globe and Mail that cited three unnamed sources, Trudeau is expected to step down from leadership by Wednesday, when a national caucus meeting is scheduled.
Trudeau’s resignation would lead to a race for party leadership, and the winner would be the next prime minister of Canada.
The news comes as Trudeau has faced record-low popularity and high-profile resignations in his Cabinet, particularly his former finance minister, Chrystia Freeland, who stepped down in mid-December.
Freeland’s reasoning for stepping down was disagreement between her and the prime minister over how to respond to President-elect Donald Trump’s 25% tariff threat.
Trudeau at the time told her he no longer wanted her to serve as finance minister, but did offer her another Cabinet position. Freeland stepped down just before she was set to give a major speech about Canada’s finances.
According to a report, some of Trudeau’s advisers didn’t believe he could survive the political fallout from Freeland’s resignation.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
