Who will replace Justin Trudeau? The top candidates

Among the frontrunners to replace Justin Trudeau as Canadian prime minister are his onetime babysitter, a former Bank of England governor and an ex-minister whose own shock resignation foreshadowed Trudeau’s demise.

Trudeau, 53, announced he would step down as Liberal leader on Monday morning, citing the paralysis that has gripped the Canadian parliament as a key factor in his decision. He will remain in office until a replacement is chosen.
