Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may quit as Liberal Party leader: Report

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may resign as Liberal Party leader on Monday, amid mounting pressure from within the party to step down, The Globe and Mail reported, citing sources.

The move follows polling data indicating a significant defeat for the Liberals against the opposition Conservatives in the federal election scheduled for October. It also comes shortly after Chrystia Freeland's resignation as finance minister and deputy prime minister less than a month ago.
