How much did Canadian PM Trudeau’s policies lead to his deepening unpopularity?

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Monday (Jan 6) that he would step down in the coming months after nine years in power. He told a press conference that he would stay on both as prime minister and Liberal leader until the party chooses a new chief within months. Speculation has been mounting in recent months as the Liberals faced increasing criticism over inflation and housing costs. Dr Christopher Adams, adjunct professor of political studies at the University of Manitoba, tells CNA’s Asia First what led to Trudeau’s significant unpopularity. He also shares his insights on who could replace him in the Liberal Party.
