"Carney's victory owes much to Trump and circumstance, as the attack on the Filipino street festival overshadowed the campaign's political narrative."
"The result is still an index of Trump's power as a recruiting sergeant for his opponents as well as his supporters, highlighting the influence on Canadian politics."
Canada's recent election saw the Liberals, led by Mark Carney, unexpectedly secure a minority government, extending their decade of rule.

Carney's strong opposition to Donald Trump and the political climate influenced voter perception. The rise of right-wing populism faced a setback in Canada as Poilievre reportedly lost his seat. The election was also marked by tragedy following a deadly attack in Vancouver, which cast a shadow over the electoral proceedings and highlighted the depth of political concerns in a polarized atmosphere.
