Trudeau's Resignation and Political Landscape

Justin Trudeau announced his decision to resign from his roles as Prime Minister and leader of the Liberal Party due to months of parliamentary paralysis and declining popularity. Pressure from within his party mounted after the resignation of his finance minister, Chrystia Freeland, who criticized Trudeau's policies in her resignation letter, leading to public dissatisfaction. This growing discontent stemmed largely from economic challenges facing Canadians, such as inflation and rising costs, which continue to strain working-class citizens. Notably, Trudeau's favorability ratings lag behind those of his political peers, highlighting a significant shift in public opinion against his leadership.
