Canadian PM Justin Trudeau resigns after nine years amid falling support and internal strife.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation, stepping down after nearly nine years in office due to declining public support and internal party strife. Trudeau will remain interim PM until a new leader is chosen, with key contenders including Chrystia Freeland, Mark Carney, and Mélanie Joly. Conservatives, led by Pierre Poilievre, now lead in polls with 47% support, up from previous months. Trudeau's departure sets the stage for a pivotal leadership race and election for the Liberals.
