  • Analysts say Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will leave the world stage with a legacy of pushing for feminist causes and international rules, and criticism that his actions fell short of rhetoric.

The article discusses the mixed global legacy of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau as he considers stepping down amidst a turbulent political climate. Analysts highlight Trudeau's progressive policies, including his advocacy for climate change action, gender equality, and welcoming refugees, which have earned him international praise. However, his tenure has also been marked by controversies such as the SNC-Lavalin affair, the Aga Khan vacation scandal, and his handling of relations with India, particularly the fallout from the assassination of a Sikh separatist leader in Canada.
