Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on January 6, 2025, that he will step down, succumbing to pressure from within his own Liberal Party months ahead of an October deadline for the country’s next legislative elections. Trudeau’s move ends nearly a decade in power, and marks a stark contrast to when he became prime minister in 2015, on a wave of enthusiasm that ended a period of similar length, during which Canada’s Conservative Party held sway. Polling indicates the Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre, is likely to defeat Trudeau’s successor.
