Outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took parting shots at President Donald Trump on his way out of office. Trudeau is expected to step down this week once Mark Carney is sworn in as prime minister after winning the Liberal Party’s race for a new leader.

In his last days as prime minister, Justin Trudeau was moved to tears as he talked about his ongoing fight with President Donald Trump and how the US tariffs have shaken Canada. Trudeau, 53, held a press conference in Ottawa to talk about health care for children. He got emotional as he promised to always put “Canadians first.”

The episode has not only given Trudeau a bump in support, but it’s delivered a potential lifeline to his flailing Liberal Party ahead of the expected election. It’s also a boon for his successor, Mark Carney, who was elected Liberal leader on Sunday and will soon take the prime minister’s office, at least briefly.
