Liberal Party leader Mark Carney has announced a snap election on April 28, just weeks after taking office as Prime Minister. Carney's decision is driven by escalating tensions with the US, particularly concerns over Trump's trade actions and threats to Canadian sovereignty. He is seeking a robust mandate to navigate these challenges, emphasizing the need for change. This election comes at a pivotal time as support for the Liberal Party has surged, contrasting with earlier struggles against the opposition Conservatives, who had previously held a significant lead.
I'm asking Canadians for a strong, positive mandate to deal with President Trump and to build a new Canadian economy that works for everyone because I know we need change—big change, positive change.
The US president's tariffs and calls to annex Canada have fueled anger and uncertainty, and many Canadians have been supportive of the Liberal government's firm and unified response to Washington.
