In Canada, on Sunday, the ruling party is preparing to choose a new leader, who will take the place of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who is stepping down amid a trade war with the United States and under pressure, led by former President Donald Trump. Trudeau announced in January his departure from the post he has held for almost ten years, in a situation where he faced a decline in the party's popularity and approaching general elections.
It is expected that the transfer of power between Trudeau and the new party leader will take place without problems. It is most likely that Mark Carney (59 years old), a former banker with limited political experience, will be the leading contender for victory in the liberal party leader elections (center-left).
