Summary
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to resign within days, reports suggest.
After nine years in office, Trudeau faces mounting pressure following Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland’s recent resignation over disagreements about handling proposed U.S. tariffs, which could harm Canada’s economy.
Trudeau’s Liberal Party is trailing in polls, and his resignation could trigger a leadership void ahead of an election required by late October.
While the exact timing of his departure remains unclear, sources anticipate an announcement before Wednesday’s emergency meeting of Liberal legislators. Trudeau’s office has not commented.
