Canada’s Liberals elect new leader to replace Trudeau as country deals with Trump threats
Voting has concluded in the Canadian Liberal Party leadership race, with former central banker Mark Carney heavily favored to succeed Justin Trudeau. Carney, who previously led both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, has garnered significant support from within the party.
Carney's main competitor is Chrystia Freeland, Trudeau's former deputy prime minister. While a Freeland victory would be unexpected, the outcome of this election will significantly impact the Liberal Party's direction as they prepare for the upcoming national election, which must take place by October amid challenges posed by the United States.
