Odaily report: After Trudeau announced his resignation as Liberal Party leader and Prime Minister following a strong national leadership contest in the party, the prediction market Polymarket shows a 92% chance of crypto-friendly Pierre Poilievre being elected as the new Prime Minister of Canada. Earlier, the Conservative Party of Canada elected Ontario MP Pierre Poilievre, a supporter of Bitcoin, as its new leader. As the new Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre is preparing to compete for the Prime Minister's position in the 2025 federal election against incumbent Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Poilievre has been a public supporter of Bitcoin, stating "I want to make Canada the blockchain capital of the world," and has promised to fire the central bank governor, audit central bank activities, and halt the development of a central bank digital currency (CBDC) if he becomes Prime Minister.
