Ex-central banker Mark Carney to become Canada's next prime minister
Briefly

Mark Carney has been elected as the new leader of Canada's Liberal Party, succeeding Justin Trudeau as prime minister after Trudeau's resignation due to declining popularity and internal party pressure. Carney secured nearly 86% of the vote, demonstrating overwhelming support. In his inaugural address, he expressed strong opposition to U.S. tariffs imposed by Donald Trump, asserting that Canada would maintain its retaliatory measures until proper respect is established. Carney's leadership experience includes significant roles at the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, making him a seasoned figure in managing economic challenges.
There is someone who is trying to weaken our economy. Donald Trump has put unjustified tariffs on what we build, on what we sell and how we make a living.
We didn't ask for this fight, but Canadians are always ready when someone else drops the gloves. They [the US] should make no mistake, in trade, as in hockey, Canada will win.
