Fox News reported:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is reportedly expected to resign from his position as early as Monday, according to Canadian media.
The news was first reported by the Globe and Mail on Sunday night, citing three sources. The outlet said that it is unclear when exactly Trudeau will step down, but it is expected to come before a national caucus meeting on Wednesday.
The news comes as Trudeau’s popularity continues to dwindle in Canada, which is expecting a national election on Oct. 20 of this year. According to Canadian pollster Angus Reid, Trudeau has a disapproval rate of around 68% as of Dec. 24, with a meager 28% of Canadians supporting him.
The potential resignation would also come after Trudeau braved a difficult few months in politics. In September, he faced a no confidence vote in parliament that later failed, despite efforts from the Conservative Party to remove him from office.
The Washington Examiner added:
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.
