Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau emphasized that his country deserves the right choice in the next election and added that "it has become clear that he cannot be the best option on the ballot for Canadians if he has to fight "internal battles"
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that he is submitting resignation to the positions of prime minister and the Liberal Party, and he will remain at the head of the cabinet until the election of the new party leadership.
Trudeau said at a press conference that since he became prime minister in 2015, he has fought for Canada and its people, and especially for strengthening the middle class, BBC reports.
He pointed out that he is particularly proud of how the country united and how people supported each other during the covid pandemic, and he stated that he was also satisfied with what he did to protect free trade on the continent.
"This country deserves the right choice in the next election," he said, adding that "it has become clear that he cannot be the best option on the ballot for Canadians" if he has to fight "internal battles."
He indicated that Parliament had been "paralyzed for months," which he described as "the longest session of a minority parliament in Canadian history."
"Stopping the fight against climate change makes no sense"
Trudeau said the Liberal Party was elected for a third term in 2021 to strengthen the post-pandemic economy and advance the national interest, and said he and his party would continue to do so.
"Canada is a better country today than it was when I took office as Prime Minister in 2015." The government I led made the economy work for everyone, not just for some, it reduced poverty and provided many more jobs," said Trudeau.
He stated that in March the parliament will vote on confidence in the government, which is in line with the functioning of democracy, and expressed his belief that the Conservative Party and its leader Pierre Poliver would not be a good solution for Canada.
"Stopping the fight against climate change makes no sense." We need an ambitious, optimistic view of the future, and Poliver does not offer that," said Trudeau.
The three largest opposition parties have already announced that they will topple Trudeau's government during a vote of confidence in parliament, which means that new elections are all but certain.
