After Justin Trudeau resigned as prime minister last month, what does the in-tray look like for Canada’s next leader?
The country is facing a major challenge from new US president Donald Trump who introduced 25% tariffs on Canadian exports - now postponed for 30 days - and is even questioning the country's identity.
But Canada also has a list of problems to address from within, such as rising property costs and new rules on immigration.
We find out how people are feeling – and what happens next.
