Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Expected to Resign

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce his resignation today, Monday, January 6th, from his Ottawa residence. Pressure has mounted within his Liberal Party, trailing significantly in the polls behind the opposition Conservatives. The anticipated resignation follows reports from sources to The Globe and Mail.

Trudeau's potential departure comes amid internal party strife, exacerbated by the recent announcement from US President-elect Donald Trump of proposed 25 percent tariffs on Canadian goods.

The announcement is scheduled for 10:45 am local time (3:45 pm UK time) from Rideau Cottage. This move potentially marks the end of Trudeau's nine-year tenure.
