Canada's prime minister says he frequently thinks about leaving his "crazy job" but plans to stay on through another election.
Justin Trudeau has faced growing questions about his political future, with polls suggesting he is increasingly unpopular among Canadians.
In an interview with broadcaster Radio-Canada, Mr Trudeau also spoke about personal sacrifices of his job.
Canada's next general election must be held by October 2025.
Opinion polling in recent months indicates that Canadians are feeling a growing dissatisfaction with his government, spurred by frustration with issues like housing affordability and the cost of living. The governing Liberals have been trailing behind the Conservatives, the main opposition, often by double digits.
Concerns that the "Trudeau brand" might be a drag on the Liberal party's fortunes has led to speculation in political circles that Mr Trudeau may be eyeing the exit, and even some allies have suggested it's time for him to leave.
But in a 24-minute interview released on Friday with the French-language broadcaster, Mr Trudeau said: "I could not be the man I am and abandon the fight at this point."

Predictably, Twitter has not been kind in the comments.

The Twitter comments remind me of the comments that are on OAN.

And how do you explain that? Nothing to do with his and other's like him and their policies? They are just victims of "rising hate." Pre 2020 I don't remember ever seeing a F*CK TRUDEAU flag. Did they even exist?

As Canadians, we are blessed to live in a free and democratic country.
In 2021, we collectively exercised the democratic rights guaranteed to us by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the Canada Elections Act. In the 44th General Election since Confederation, a total of 17,209,811 Canadian citizens exercised their right to vote, and to freely choose from among 2,010 fellow citizens who put themselves forward as candidates. We should all take pride in the fact that Canadians continue to be so deeply engaged in our democratic process and its institutions.
Under our system of Parliamentary and responsible government, we continue to govern with the confidence of the House of Commons. We are accountable to Parliament and to Canadians, whether through Parliament proceedings, the scrutiny of the free press, and the many formal and informal ways in which Government and elected Members of Parliament engage with concerned citizens, organizations, and civil society every day.
We continue to work to make Canada a place where we can all thrive. Our agenda as a Government includes measures to make life more affordable for Canadians, whether through investing in child care and dental care, or by improving important benefits such as the Canada Child Benefit, Canada Pension Plan, OAS, and the Guaranteed Income Supplement. We are helping Canadians create new middle class jobs by tackling supply chain challenges, doubling the Tradespeople’s Tool Deduction, and promoting international trade to bring Canadian goods and services to the global marketplace. And we are protecting our environment for future generations by greening our electrical grid, electrifying our transport sector, and investing in the critical mineral sector that makes Canada a world leader.
The Government is proud of this record. We continue to work hard to retain the confidence of Parliament for the remainder of this term, and Canadian citizens will once again exercise their democratic rights in the 45th General Election.
...a total of 17,209,811 Canadian citizens exercised their right to vote...
The majority of whom did not vote for the Liberal Party.
