Canadian PM Carney’s Liberals win federal election dominated by Trump

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and his Liberal Party have secured a fourth consecutive government following Monday’s election. The Liberal Party won 169 out of 343 seats in Parliament, but it remains uncertain whether they will form a minority or majority government. Some projections suggest it will be a minority government. Carney expressed gratitude to Canada and emphasized the importance of unity and working together to strengthen the country. The victory comes after a shift in public sentiment following threats of annexation and tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump, leading to anti-American sentiments in Canada. Carney stressed the need to prioritize Canada’s interests and build prosperity independently. Other party leaders, like Pierre Poilievre of the Conservative Party, acknowledged defeat and highlighted the importance of learning from the election outcome. Despite challenges, leaders like Jagmeet Singh of the New Democratic Party remain committed to fighting for a better Canada.
