Canada Canada Elections: Prime Minister Carney's Liberal Party to lead fourth consecutive government

Canada's Liberal Party is projected to win the country's federal election for the fourth consecutive time.

The Liberals, led by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who took over after Justin Trudeau resigned earlier this year, won the majority in a shocking turnaround sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump's threats of annexation and his tariffs on America's close ally and northern neighbor.

As of late Monday, the Liberal Party was leading with 161 seats won in Parliament as opposed to the 150 seats held by the Conservative Party. A party needs to win 172 of Parliament’s 343 seats to hold the majority.
