Big news coming out of Canada – it looks like Justin Trudeau might be ready to step down as Prime Minister. If the reports are true, he could make the announcement as early as today! After nine years at the helm, Trudeau is reportedly feeling the heat from his own party. The Liberals are lagging behind the Conservatives in the polls, and it seems the pressure is mounting.

So, what’s the scoop? According to sources from The Globe and Mail and Reuters, Trudeau hasn’t made a final call yet, but there’s a good chance he’ll resign before a crucial Liberal Party meeting on Wednesday. It’s all a bit hush-hush for now, but the signs are pointing towards a big change in Canadian politics.

Adding to the drama, this all comes on the heels of a tense moment with the U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, who’s been floating the idea of slapping a 25% tariff on Canadian goods. This has caused a bit of a rift in the Liberal Party, especially after Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland unexpectedly quit in December. Word is, she and Trudeau didn’t see eye-to-eye on how to handle Trump’s tough talk on tariffs.

Canada is set for a general election by October, but with all this happening, it’s anyone’s guess whether Trudeau will stick around until then. Stay tuned for more updates as this political thriller unfolds.
