He was once a man of great promise, but now the Canadian Prime Minister, who resigned this week, leaves the stage in tatters

Justin Trudeau has announced he will step down after nine years as Canadian prime minister in the face of a mounting set of crises, but stay in office until a replacement party leader is chosen.

Trudeau announced his resignation after facing an increasing loss of support from both within his party and in the country.

Justin Trudeau's leadership has faced significant challenges in the wake of the COVID crisis, leading to a loss of confidence among Canadians from various backgrounds.

Experts have told Newsweek that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's resignation will mean "very little" for immigration policy in practice.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce his resignation amid increasing pressure from his Liberal party, according to reports.

Canadian Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday said he would step down in the coming months after nine years in power, bowing to legislators alarmed by the party's miserable pre-election polling numbers.

The development comes a month after Canada's deputy prime minister, Chrystia Freeland, resigned suddenly from Trudeau's cabinet.

Freeland, the most high-profile member of the government after Trudeau, had been finance minister since August 2020 and helped craft the government's multi-billion-dollar social spending program to help fight the COVID pandemic.

President-elect Donald Trump suggested that his proposed tariffs contributed to the Canadian prime minister's resignation.
