Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has announced his resignation as the leader of the Liberal Party and his intention to step down as prime minister after nearly a decade in power. Trudeau will remain in both roles until a new leader is chosen through a party election.Facing mounting criticism over issues like lax immigration laws, rising crime, inflation, and his handling of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s threats of tariffs, Trudeau's popularity had waned. His government narrowly survived several no-confidence votes, and calls for his resignation had intensified.
