CANADIAN Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation after facing an increasing loss of support both within his party and in the country.

Carney, Freeland, LeBlanc lead race to replace Trudeau

Now Trudeau's Liberal Party must find a new leader while dealing with Donald Trump's threats to impose steep tariffs on Canadian goods and with Canada's election just months away.

When will there be a new prime minister?

The Liberals need to elect a new leader before Parliament resumes March 24 because all three opposition parties say they will bring down the Liberal government in a no-confidence vote at the first opportunity, which would trigger an election. The new leader might not be prime minister for long. A spring election would very likely favour the opposing Conservative Party.
