Unfortunately, the liberal party rules say they require a minimum of four months to elect a new leader. They may be able to fast track it in three months, but it’s entirely up to the liberal party so I suspect Trudeau will still be leader when Parliament resumes.
They will ask the Governor General for a prorogation during the leader selection process so Parliament will not be resuming any time soon.
