The article discusses how the Canadian opposition parties are gaining popularity while the Liberals are losing support. Trudeau's decision to call an early election has led to a possibility of a change in government, with the Conservatives appealing to more people with a centrist approach.

If Trudeau loses, Chrystia Freeland is expected to become the new Liberal leader.
