  • He announced that parliament would be prorogued, or suspended, until March 24

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation after nearly nine years in office, citing internal party pressures and his declining popularity as factors in his decision.

In a press conference on Monday, Trudeau stated he would remain in office until the Liberal Party selects a new leader. He also announced that parliament would be prorogued, or suspended, until March 24.

“This country deserves a real choice in the next election, and it has become clear to me that if I’m having to fight internal battles, I cannot be the best option in that election,” Trudeau said.

Trudeau’s resignation comes as his personal unpopularity began to weigh heavily on the Liberal Party’s prospects ahead of federal elections later this year.

His tenure has been marked by a mix of progressive policy wins and controversies, with recent polling showing dwindling public support for his leadership.

The Liberal Party will now focus on selecting a new leader capable of reinvigorating the party and presenting a strong alternative in the upcoming elections. The prorogation of parliament until March will provide time for this leadership transition.
