OTTAWA—Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation plans at a news conference outside Rideau Cottage on Monday.
Trudeau said his instinct was to stay on, but the internal battles in his own party made that impossible. For the time being, he said he intends to stay on as Liberal party leader and prime minister until a new leader is chosen.
“My friends, as you all know I am a fighter, every bone in my body has always told me to fight because I care deeply about Canadians. I care deeply about this country,” he said. “I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister after the party selects it’s next leader through a robust nationwide competitive process.”
Trudeau also confirmed he met with Governor General Mary Simon early Monday morning and received her approval to prorogue Parliament until March 24.
It is far from clear whether that will satisfy his mutinous caucus, most of which have now — at least privately in caucus meetings — called for him to leave.
After a full-on press from most of his fellow MPs to leave the top job after Chrystia Freeland quit as his finance minister in mid-December, Trudeau could no longer ignore calls, including those by his Ontario, Atlantic and Quebec caucuses that it was time to go.
Prorogation suspends the current Parliament, which was set to return at the end of January. It will mean the end of any legislation currently before the House of Commons and force the government to reopen with a throne speech when the commons comes back.
It also means the Liberals will be able to avoid any confidence votes during this time.
The Star reported Sunday that Trudeau would announce his intentions before an emergency Liberal caucus meeting on Wednesday.
