The political crisis in Canada is taking a new turn. Various media outlets in the country are reporting indications that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will resign this week. No official statement has been released regarding the news that Trudeau will announce his resignation. Media reports say that Trudeau's setbacks in Canadian politics, speculation about his political future, declining approval ratings in recent days, and challenges to the Liberal Party have led to his resignation.
Trudeau, who has been prime minister since 2015, has faced a lot of criticism over major policy decisions and the party's performance in recent elections.
Media reports say Trudeau's resignation could spark a leadership contest within the Liberal Party and lead to a political realignment at a critical time for Canada's economy. The Prime Minister's Office has not yet commented on such reports. An official announcement on the resignation is expected soon.
