Papineau is a Liberal stronghold and represents voters in a city that has been tied to the Trudeau name for decades
The sign on the door of Trudeau 's Papineau riding office in Montreal on Jan. 6. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that he will be resigning as the leader of the Liberals and will step down once the new leader is chosen. Parliament is also prorogued until March 25.
The younger Mr. Trudeau spent many of his formative years in Montreal, splitting his time between the city and the official prime minister’s residence at 24 Sussex Dr. in Ottawa. After the family moved back to Montreal upon his father’s retirement in 1984, he attended the Jesuit-run Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf, where his father had also been a student.
After months of pressure from all sides, voters on Monday were not surprised by Mr. Trudeau’s announced departure. While some were relieved to see him go after enduring punishing inflation, others underscored the challenges he faced during his three mandates, including the COVID-19 pandemic and Donald Trump’s first term as U.S. president.Noor Maghraoui poses for a portrait at Jarry Metro in Justin Trudeau's Papineau riding in Montreal on Jan. 6.
