Well, Trudeau has taken a page from the Conservative playbook (Stephen Harper era) and prorogued Parliament. There won't be another legislative session until March 24, and anything that was on the order paper is dead. Considering that the Conservatives have been filibustering everything for months, that doesn't change much in the short term.
Oh, and he's stepped down as Prime Minister effective upon the choice of his successor.
Putting those two together, that means there cannot be a non-confidence motion (that would bring down the government if it passed) until March 24 at the earliest. Which, in all honesty, would have been disastrous during the "100 days" of the Governor-Elect of the USA (giving him as much respect as he gives anyone else).
