“I intend to resign as party leader as prime minister, after the party selects its next leader through a robust nationwide competitive process.” Trudeau met Canada’s governor general Mary Simon this morning and asked her to prorogue parliament, which would end the current parliamentary session and kill all legislative business that hasn’t passed. Trudeau said he would remain in both roles until his replacement has been chosen through a party election.
