Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is likely to announce his resignation in the coming days, according to reports. Trudeau's popularity has declined in recent years due to issues like the high cost of living and rising inflation. Members of his own Liberal Party have called for his resignation, citing polls that predict a significant loss for the ruling party in the next election.
