Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney Expected to Call Snap Election on Sunday

The election, likely set for April 28 or May 5, will focus on U.S. trade tensions and sovereignty threats under President Trump.

Mark Carney, recently sworn in as Canada’s 24th Prime Minister, plans to dissolve Parliament and call a federal election on March 23, 2025.
The election is expected to be held on either April 28 or May 5, with a campaign lasting between 36 and 50 days.
Carney seeks a strong mandate to address escalating trade tensions and annexation rhetoric from U.S. President Donald Trump.
Polling shows the Liberal Party has surged ahead of the Conservatives, driven by Canadian nationalism and Carney’s leadership.
Key campaign issues include economic protection, trade diversification, and defending Canadian sovereignty against U.S. pressures.
