Mark Carney's Liberals Gain Momentum in Canadian Election Campaign

With polls favoring the Liberals, Carney's leadership and economic strategy resonate as Trump tariffs reshape voter priorities.

Mark Carney's Liberal Party leads the Conservatives in polls, with projections suggesting a potential majority government in the April 28 election.
Carney has emphasized economic resilience and reducing reliance on the U.S., declaring the end of deep economic and security ties with America.
Donald Trump's tariffs on Canadian goods and annexation rhetoric have dominated the campaign, shifting voter focus to national sovereignty and economic independence.
Pierre Poilievre's Conservative campaign has centered on affordability, though he faces challenges distancing himself from Trump comparisons.
The collapse of NDP support has further bolstered Liberal prospects, with voters increasingly viewing Carney as the steady leader for economic turmoil.
