Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce his resignation as leader of the Liberal Party as soon as today, Monday, according to The Globe and Mail. This comes after increasing pressure from MPs within his caucus and poor public opinion poll results, which have shown the Liberal Party trailing behind the Conservative Party.
The Globe report cites three anonymous sources, who say they are unsure of the exact timeline but anticipate Trudeau will reveal his decision before a national caucus meeting scheduled for Wednesday.
Trudeau’s resignation comes amid growing challenges for the Liberal Party, as internal calls for change increase and public support for the party continues to weaken. His leadership has been under scrutiny as the party struggles to maintain its footing in a competitive political landscape.
The announcement could have significant political implications for the future direction of the Liberal Party and Canada’s political scene.
