Just In: Canada Elects New Prime Minister To Replace Trudeau

Carney, 59, secured a decisive victory with 86% of the vote, defeating former Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland in a contest that saw participation from nearly 152,000 party members. His leadership comes at a challenging time for Canada, which is engaged in a trade dispute with the United States under President Donald Trump and is preparing for a general election.

Addressing party members after his victory, Carney took a strong stance against Trump, accusing him of harming Canada’s economy.
