Pierre Poilievre, the leader of Canadaâs Conservatives, faced a stunning defeat in the recent national election, where his party's earlier double-digit lead over Liberals vanished. A key factor in the Liberals' success was the introduction of new leader Mark Carney, who reshaped the party's image. Additionally, the political landscape was influenced by the shadow of Donald Trump's presidency, which rallied nationalist sentiments that Carney leveraged effectively, while Poilievre's anti-Trudeau stance couldn't compete. The election became a referendum on Trump rather than Trudeau, impacting other parties negatively as well.
"Not only had the Conservatives failed to win Monday's national election, but their leader looked set to lose his own parliamentary seat."
"Trudeau bowed out early this year, triggering a leadership contest that helped change the image of his center-left party to one less burdened by its years in power."
