Canada’s new leader faces big challenges related to Trump and beyond

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau secured a rare fourth consecutive term in Canada after leading his Liberals past significant opposition, amid deepening political divisions and external threats like President Trump's trade war. The election revealed a divided country with competing party agendas and regional tensions, particularly over economic diversification, climate change, and high living costs. While Trudeau’s victory reflected strong support for his agenda, challenges remain in balancing domestic unity with Trump’s impact on the economy and relations.
