Trudeau is rapidly wrapping himself in the banana republic dictator dilemma where one cannot give up power because your actions have made your post-power life untenable. Trudeau obviously doesn't have to fear that the opposition is going to murder him after leaving office but his path upwards or even sideways have all been blocked by his actions. He is now radioactive. No international NGO is going to hire him as their leader. The UN isn't going to come calling for the Canadian wonderboy to head up an important global initiative. Maybe a thinktank somewhere will give him something to do once out of office but overall, he has made himself irrelevant once he leaves the PM's post. For a person like him, that's ego death and something he will do nearly anything to avoid.
