Justin Trudeau wants a fourth term as Canada’s prime minister

By James Yan

The last time a Canadian prime minister won a fourth successive term, in 1908, the country boasted a population smaller than that of modern-day Toronto. Justin Trudeau, who has led Canada since 2015 and is now in his third term, is convinced he can eke out another victory. That is despite trailing the opposition Conservatives in the polls for most of 2023. If he can pull it off, he will have bested his father, Pierre Trudeau, who narrowly lost a fourth campaign in 1979.
