The Canadian Liberal Party, led by Prime Minister Mark Carney, won a contentious election influenced heavily by U.S. President Donald Trump's trade policies and provocative rhetoric. This victory marks a significant turnaround for the Liberals, who were previously facing electoral defeat. Carney's campaign focused on unifying Canadians against external threats. With 168 seats in Parliament, the Liberals fell short of a majority but defeated the Conservative Party, securing a critical win. European allies expressed support, emphasizing shared democratic values and agenda alignment with Canada amidst rising tensions.
In his victory speech, Carney issued a dire warning, calling on Canadians to unite in the face of Trump's threats. America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country.
The bond between Europe and Canada is strong and growing stronger, von der Leyen said. We'll defend our shared democratic values, promote multilateralism, and champion free and fair trade.
Canada's allies in Europe have been quick to herald the result and highlight their joint commitment to democratic values and the rules-based international order.
President Trump is trying to break us so that America can own us; that will never ever happen, but we also must recognize the reality that our world has fundamentally changed.
