🇨🇦Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau may announce his resignation as early as today after nine years in office, Reuters reports, citing sources.
If not today, it could happen before Wednesday.
Trudeau plans to step down as Liberal leader, and it is unclear whether he will remain prime minister until a new Liberal leader is chosen.
Polls show Trudeau's Liberal Party will be "crushingly" defeated by the Conservatives in elections due to be held later this year. Against this backdrop, more Liberal MPs are publicly calling for Trudeau to resign.
Let us recall that the resignation of the Austrian Chancellor is also expected soon.

The next bit isn’t clear, but Durov reportedly claimed that his resignation, dated March 21st, was an April Fools’ prank. TechCrunch implies that it was a matter of principle, but it’s hard to be clear on the wheres, whos and whys. Similarly, on April 17th, the Moscow Times quoted Durov as saying that he quit the company after being pressured to reveal account details about Ukrainians protesting the then-president Viktor Yanukovych. Although some channels have been removed, the curation process is considered opaque and insufficient by analysts. The channel appears to be part of the broader information war that has developed following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin has paid Russian TikTok influencers to push propaganda, according to a Vice News investigation, while ProPublica found that fake Russian fact check videos had been viewed over a million times on Telegram. The War on Fakes channel has repeatedly attempted to push conspiracies that footage from Ukraine is somehow being falsified. One post on the channel from February 24 claimed without evidence that a widely viewed photo of a Ukrainian woman injured in an airstrike in the city of Chuhuiv was doctored and that the woman was seen in a different photo days later without injuries. The post, which has over 600,000 views, also baselessly claimed that the woman's blood was actually makeup or grape juice. So, uh, whenever I hear about Telegram, it’s always in relation to something bad. What gives?
