Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau reportedly is expected to resign as party leader Monday following weeks of mounting pressure and criticism.
Trudeau will announce his decision to step down as leader of Canada’s ruling Liberal Party but will remain prime minister until a new leader is selected, CNN and The New York Times reported, citing sources close to him.
His announcement reportedly is expected during a news conference scheduled for 10:45 a.m. ET.
Trudeau’s departure would follow him leading the party for nearly 11 years and serving as prime minister for nine.
