Mark Carney’s Liberals will form Canada minority government, CBC projects

The Canadian election saw Prime Minister Mark Carner’s Liberal Party fall short of forming a majority government after winning only 169 seats, just shy of the required 172. Despite trailing the Conservative Party by up to 25 percentage points in January, the Liberals benefited from Trump’s influence and Trudeau’s resignation amid housing affordability issues. Meanwhile, the opposition New Democratic Party (NDP), projected to win seven seats, could play a key role in supporting a minority government led by Carner, who emphasized unity and promised to address tariffs amid Trump’s threats.
