Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is reportedly on the verge of stepping down, with an announcement potentially coming as early as Monday, according to Canadian media.
This news marks the culmination of what has been described as Trudeau’s most difficult year in politics.
Justin Trudeau’s Political Journey
Trudeau became leader of the Liberal Party in 2013 and assumed the role of prime minister in 2015.
While his tenure was initially marked by widespread support, his recent years in office have been overshadowed by mounting challenges and dwindling popularity.
Resignation Speculation
Reports indicate that it is unclear exactly when Trudeau will step down. However, sources suggest his resignation will likely occur before a national caucus meeting scheduled for Wednesday.
The speculation surrounding Trudeau’s decision is further fueled by analysts pointing to the impact of strained relations with the U.S. under former President Donald Trump.
Following a controversial meeting at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, Trudeau reportedly began contemplating his future as Canada’s prime minister.
