You have it right. He’s also cancelled all end of year interviews with media.

A bit of irony in Trudeau hiding out in the USA…
whilst I can see the likelihood of a leadership change, I find it difficult to imagine them changing directions politically. There are too many with whacko beliefs. You won't get the environment minister to reverse course even a little bit, for example
also implies the presence of someone bright enough to work through such a scenario. I doubt that Justin fits that definition
hasn't happened in Ontario yet

That we've heard out loud so far.
Oh, I meant "more of" for sure. Mind you, with Trump at the helm in the south, and PP at the helm here, there'll be past management on both sides to blame, but just warning to be careful what one wishes for.
Maybe over time, but it would depend how much time would be available. I can't find it at my fingertips, but I've seen polling showing party fortunes continuing to stay low even if PMJT scoots.
As for current polling, this almost literally hot off the presses ...

I think the guy is a dickhead, and should quit the PM role, but this nickle and diming of the PM and GG is silly and petty. The fact that no one wants to spend money on the official residence so it's now a condemned hole is pretty embarrassing.
With a job like that, they should get regular vacations, and it will cost the taxpayer for security etc, but that's just part of the gig. I personally don't want the leader of our country to burn out, and this is pretty weird crab barreling. I can't stand PP, but would have no issue with him doing the same as PM and taking vacations somewhere warm in the winter, because lets face it the cold can suck.
Hopefully he comes back refreshed and pulls the plug on his lame duck leadership, but why begrudge anyone a vacation?

Canada's finance minister resigns. Prime Minister Trudeau has a political crisis
STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:
What is going on with democracies? Never mind the United States - Germany's government collapsed. France's government is paralyzed. And now Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faces a crisis. His longtime ally, who served as both his finance minister and deputy prime minister, left his government. Chrystia Freeland resigned with a public letter criticizing her boss. Catherine Cullen is covering this. She hosts CBC Radio's political program "The House." And she joins us now from Ottawa. Hi, Catherine.
CATHERINE CULLEN: Good morning, Steve.
INSKEEP: Why is it such a big deal, this resignation?
CULLEN: Oh, I mean, it was an absolute political earthquake. As you say, Chrystia Freeland, the deputy prime minister, the finance minister, she was the original Justin Trudeau liberal before he was prime minister. He recruited her. He brought her on as a star candidate. And what she did yesterday, it wasn't just a resignation letter, a public resignation letter. The day that she delivered that letter, I was with a group of other reporters. We were headed into the fall economic statement, sort of a mini-budget. She was supposed to deliver this big address on the state of the nation's finances, new information about more than a billion dollars being invested in the border to try to deal with the threat of Trump's tariffs, billions more for investment credits for business. This was, in many ways, her day.

This is what happens when an ideology weakens and divides a country to the point it has no one to turn to for leadership and barely nothing to defend itself. A bully comes in and tries to rob your house.

I get what you're saying but.... timing. Timing. Timing.
Leadership comes with responsibility. Sometimes that responsibility means cancelling plans to deal with things.
I could care less where he goes on vacation.
It’s funny that that annoys people though.
However he left in the dead of night without addressing the public or anything and avoided planned traditional media interviews.
He’s running.
