The race begins to switch Canada’s Trudeau as prime minister

Ottawa –
The race to be Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s successor kicked off on Tuesday, a day after he resigned amid a looming commerce warfare with the United States and a divisive political local weather at residence.

The nation’s new chief is more likely to face elections inside weeks of taking on from Trudeau in March.

With the incumbent Liberal Party slumping badly within the polls, whoever wins the management contest may discover themselves in opposition after the votes are counted, tasked with rebuilding the party.
