Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may step down as Liberal leader before the next election, according to a former senior adviser and close friend of his.

Gerald Butts stated that he does not believe Trudeau will remain as leader to lead the Liberals into the next election. In a Substack newsletter, Butts wrote that the recent resignation of Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has been a major blow to Trudeau, further weakening his already tenuous grip on the party.

He added that before Freeland's resignation, Trudeau had a chance to lead the party into the next election, but now that seems unlikely. He also suggested that this could mean an early election, potentially leading to a Conservative majority government.
