Canada Goes To Polls In April — Trump Effect And 5 Other Things To Know About The Election

ABP News  

Canada Election 2025: In a bold and widely expected political gamble, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has called a federal election on April 28, triggering a 36-day campaign that promises to reshape the country’s political future amid growing economic and diplomatic tensions with the United States. Announcing the vote on Sunday after a meeting with Governor-General Mary Simon, Carney framed the election as a mandate for stability, strength, and sovereignty in the face of what he called a historic crisis spurred by President Donald Trump’s escalating trade war and inflammatory rhetoric. The election sets up a high-stakes showdown between Liberal Party's Carney and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, in what many observers say will be a referendum on how Canada should respond to an unpredictable US administration and navigate its own national identity. Trump’s threats of “economic force”, his decision to impose sweeping tariffs on Canadian exports, and his dismissal of the US-Canada border as “artificial” have triggered alarm across the country.
