Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation as leader of the Liberal Party, following significant internal dissent over escalating living costs and a housing crisis Trudeau will remain in office until a successor is chosen. He has also prorogued Parliament until March 24, effectively suspending its operations. This decision comes after Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland resigned, citing disagreements over the government’s response to potential U.S. tariffs under President-elect Donald Trump. In response, Trudeau initiated a substantial cabinet reshuffle, replacing a third of his ministers to address the political instability. Prior to these events, Trudeau faced a revolt from 24 MPs following Freeland’s departure, indicating deepening divisions within the party.
