On April 28, Canadians voted to choose their next Prime Minister in a significant federal election marked by economic and diplomatic challenges. CBC News offered live coverage of the election results, featuring interactive reports from various locations across the nation. Despite the tension in the political landscape, all major party leaders cast their votes, showcasing a commitment to the democratic process. An interesting note from the election is that Stephane Perrault, the Chief Electoral Officer, is the only Canadian barred from voting, emphasizing the impartiality required from his position.
While Carney can't vote for himself, there's only one Canadian adult legally barred from voting: Stephane Perrault, Canada's chief electoral officer and the head of Elections Canada.
Voting places close first in Newfoundland and Labrador, then across the Atlantic region. All of the major party leaders have cast their own ballots.
Canadians will vote on April 28 in an election that will determine the next prime minister, at a time of diplomatic and economic turmoil.
CBC News provides live coverage as the results come in with Rosemary Barton, Adrienne Arsenault, Ian Hanomansing, David Cochrane, and Catherine Cullen.
