Canadians woke up Tuesday to an uncertain future, after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he would resign and bring his near-decade in power to an end.
Trudeau's announcement came just days into an election year and followed weeks of mounting pressure from within his own party to step down as he battled dire poll ratings partly driven by soaring inflation, rising immigration and his handling of President-elect Donald Trump.
"If I’m having to fight internal battles, I cannot be the best option” in Canada's next election, Trudeau, 53, told reporters in Ottawa.
His decision has triggered an urgent search within the Liberal party to identify a new candidate who can take on Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre. Poilievre has dominated in the polls and was last on 44% according to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, compared with Trudeau — whose rating sits just above 20%.

How will Canada handle him now?
Elect candidates who will Make Canada Great Again.
Send TrueDope back to Cuba.
He must've gotten tired of having to put up with Trudeau.
So true.
Justine Castro has left the building.
Origin of the Phrase Stir the Pot
“Stir the pot” is a phrase with its roots in the literal act of stirring a cooking pot. When cooking something in a giant pot, you have to stir it to keep the ingredients from sinking to the bottom and sticking. Stirring causes everything to rise to the surface and bump together; it also helps release flavors.
IMHO, the best way for Canada to “handle” Trump is by Canada lowering the tariffs and trade restrictions they’ve had on the U.S. for decades.
Propose a trade with Canuckistan
To Canuckistan: New England, NY Washinton State and Oregon, (east of Cascades) and rights to CA exclusive of San Diego area (for West Coast Port Access) and Hawaii (excluding Pearl Harbor, Schoefield Barracks and air bases/naval air stations)
To US: Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Yukon NW Terr West of Manitoba and a province to be named later
” . . . his handling of President-elect Donald Trump.”
LOL! When you mis-handle the Donald, you’re a GONER!
He’s still prime minister though so I don’t get exactly what happened. Any Canadians here?
He was on the way out waaaay before Trump did his trolling bit.
Before Trump was even elected
If Poilievre is even 1/3 as strong as Brian Mulroney, Canucks will be fine.
Pollievre is probably about as close to that as possible.
The Canuks don’t see it that way. To hear it on You Tube they’re hoping pissed off.
Maybe I’m behind the times but there are raft of these anti-Trump videos that seem to have sprung up like a case of herpes.
This is freakin’ brilliant. Poor Justine.
