"Think About Quitting Politics Every Day, Crazy Job": Canada PM Justin Trudeau
Canada's Prime Minister Justin Trudeau admits he contemplates leaving his "crazy job" daily but is committed to serving until at least the next election, scheduled for no later than October 2025.
Despite lagging behind the Conservatives in polls, Trudeau asserts his resolve to continue his work in an interview with Radio-Canada. Trudeau, in power since November 2015, faces public fatigue according to pollsters.
He defends his position amidst challenges, including his recent separation from his wife Sophie after 18 years and criticism over policies such as the carbon tax. Trudeau's determination to lead is fueled by a desire to serve rather than personal gain.
The Conservatives, in contrast, plan to eliminate the carbon tax, reduce the deficit, address housing issues, and strengthen crime prevention measures. Trudeau has declined to pause the upcoming carbon tax hike despite pressure.
