The Globe and Mail is reporting that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to announce he is stepping down as Liberal party leader as early as Monday.
Trudeau has faced mounting calls for his resignation from MPs in his caucus as public opinion polls have continued to put the Liberals far behind the Conservatives.
The Globe report says three sources, who weren’t authorized to speak about the matter publicly, did not know a specific timeline but they expected Trudeau would announce his plans before a national caucus meeting scheduled for Wednesday.
Trudeau has been leader of the federal Liberal Party since spring 2013.
