Canadians will participate in parliamentary elections on April 28, driven by anxieties over U.S. President Trump's tariffs and territorial claims. Prime Minister Mark Carney initiated the elections as he seeks to capitalize on his Liberal Party's recent momentum. With a five-week campaign ahead, experts suggest that Canada-US relations and the need for decisive leadership will be critical themes. This will be a brief campaign, adhering to the legal requirements of 37 to 51 days, and voting will occur in diverse ridings across the country under a first-past-the-post system.
'Experts say Canada-US ties and a push for strong leadership to counter US President Donald Trump's tariffs and annexation threats against the country will dominate the five-week election race.'
'Carney won the Liberal Party leadership race and became prime minister in March, setting the stage for a competitive election amid pressing international concerns.'
