Justin Trudeau Resigns: What Happens Next for Canada?

January 6, 2025 Amritpal Kaur

On January 6, 2025, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced he is stepping down as the leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. While he resigns from the party leadership, Trudeau will continue as Prime Minister until a new leader is chosen.

What Does Prorogation Mean?

Trudeau also requested that Parliament be prorogued (temporarily suspended) until March 24, 2025. This means that Parliament will not meet during this time, allowing for a smoother transition of leadership without major legislative interruptions.

The Leadership Transition

The resignation triggers a process for choosing a new Liberal leader. Within 27 days, the party's national board must meet to designate an interim leader and decide when to hold a leadership vote. Liberal MPs will soon be briefed on this process.

What’s Next for Trudeau and Canada?

While the leadership transition unfolds, Trudeau will remain as Prime Minister, ensuring stability. The Liberal Party will now focus on finding a new leader, and Canadians will be closely watching this next chapter in Canadian politics.
