Canadian media: Trudeau may resign today
Canada’s prime minister is likely to resign today due to a drop in popularity in polls and the possibility of his party falling, three informed sources said.
According to Isna, this possibility is mentioned while Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is facing pressure from his party and disappointing public opinion polls, which show that his party will probably be removed from power by the conservatives of Pierre Polivore.
“Justin Trudeau is likely to resign as prime minister early Monday (local time),” Canadian newspaper “Globe and Mail” wrote, citing three unnamed sources.
These sources also added: “We don’t know exactly when Mr. Trudeau will resign, but it is expected to happen before the national meeting on Wednesday.”
One of these sources, who recently spoke with the Prime Minister of Canada, said: “Trudeau realizes he needs to make a statement before meeting with the Liberal caucus so he doesn’t appear to have been forced to resign by his own representatives.”
The three sources added: “We are not sure about the Liberal Party’s plans to replace Mr. Trudeau as prime minister, and it is not yet clear whether he will step down immediately or remain in office until a new prime minister is chosen.” “
While Justin Trudeau has been facing pressure from his own party for a long time, tensions intensified on December 16 following the resignation of Canada’s finance minister and deputy prime minister.
Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, who suddenly resigned, accused Prime Minister Trudeau of not seriously preparing for the presidency of US President-elect Donald Trump.
Trump recently warned that if Canada does not stop illegal immigration and drug trafficking, he will impose tariffs on the country’s imported goods, and also indirectly wrote in a controversial comment on the X social network that if Canada does not deal with the tariffs, it could become the 51st state. America and Justin Trudeau become the governor of this state.
In addition, Canada’s ruling Liberals face losing their seats in the upcoming parliamentary election amid voter discontent as well as anger over high prices and the housing crisis.
Almost 2 weeks ago, it was reported that more than 50 Liberal members of Parliament from “Ontario” as the main place of activity of the opposition party in this country held a meeting and agreed that Justin Trudeau should resign from the position of Prime Minister.
