This significant decision is said to be under serious consideration, with the prime minister reportedly planning to address Parliament later today. The move has sparked intense speculation about the political future of the government and potential shifts in leadership.
If confirmed, this could mark a pivotal moment in the country’s political landscape. The prime minister’s expected address is likely to clarify his intentions and set the course for upcoming political events.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, 52, has led Canada since 2015 and still has nearly a year before the next federal election, scheduled for October 2025.
A recent Ipsos poll released in September revealed that 67% of Canadians disapprove of Trudeau’s leadership, marking a four-point increase compared to June.
Deputy Prime minister resigns
In a related development, Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned on Monday after a disagreement with Justin Trudeau over U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s recent tariff threats.
Freeland’s resignation coincides with the day the fall economic statement is scheduled to be presented in Ottawa.
On Monday, Minister of Indigenous Services Patty Hajdu extended her well wishes to Freeland when approached by the media seeking comments on the former deputy prime minister’s departure.
