Canadian Liberal Party leader and Prime Minister Mark Carney has won the parliamentary elections held on Monday, according to projections published by Canadian media.
In a speech to his supporters following confirmation of the victory indicators, Carney expressed his intention to work constructively with all parties in Parliament.
He also stated that he plans to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump to discuss the future of economic and security relations between the two sovereign nations.
The Liberals had been on the verge of a major defeat until President Trump began attacking Canada’s economy and threatening its sovereignty, even suggesting the possibility of making it the 51st U.S. state.
Trump's actions sparked a wave of nationalist sentiment among Canadians, helping the Liberals reverse course and secure a fourth consecutive term in office.
Opposition Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre had hoped the election would serve as a referendum against former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, whose popularity had waned after a decade in power amid rising food and housing costs.
