Ottawa, March 21, 2025: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to call for early federal elections, with voting expected to take place on April 28. This move comes in response to rising trade tensions and sovereignty disputes with U.S. President Donald Trump, which have sparked nationalistic sentiments and boosted support for Carney’s Liberal Party.
The decision to call a snap election aims to secure a strong mandate to manage Canada’s complex relationship with the United States. Carney will face Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre in the election, with recent polls showing a lead for the Liberal Party.
