Justin Trudeau steps down as Liberal leader. Who are the top contenders to replace him?

Justin Trudeau steps down as Liberal leader. Who are the top contenders to replace him?

With Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's resignation as Liberal party leader, several well-known political faces may be waiting in the wings for their opportunity to take his place.

With Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation as Liberal party leader, several well-known political faces may be waiting in the wings for their opportunity to take his place.

Trudeau announced Monday he’s stepping down from the party’s leadership, but staying on as prime minister until a new leader is selected through what he called a “robust, nationwide, competitive process.”

As the Liberal Party of Canada begins its search for a new leader, Parliament, in the meantime, is prorogued until March 24.

New data from Nanos Research shows that while “none of the above” remains at the top of the list of most appealing replacements for Trudeau, former deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland and former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney are coming in a close second and third place respectively.

Here’s a look at those who are considered to be top contenders to replace Trudeau.

Trudeau’s long-time deputy prime minister and finance minister quit cabinet last month in a stunning and at-times scathing letter, following months of reported simmering tensions with her now-former boss over spending.

Freeland said her decision to leave her top ministerial portfolios came after Trudeau offered her "another position in Cabinet." She opted to stay on as a Liberal MP and has already announced her intention to run in the next election.
