Canada's New Prime Minister Will Call for Elections As Soon As End of April

Canada is speeding up its political processes, with its newly appointed Prime Minister, Mark Carney, considering calling for a nationwide election to choose the next leader of the country before the end of April, as per a recent report.

Upon reading a recent report on the bounce in popularity that the Liberal Party led by Justin Trudeau experienced after his resignation, I had a strong sense that an election would be imminent to capitalize on the party’s growing support.

The new polling article I wrote just a couple of days ago was right here.

New Liberal Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney Gets a Boost Before National Election Is Called

For the first time, his projection showed the Liberals with a 55% chance of a majority government. In January, the odds stood at less than 1%.

Under Canada’s parliamentary system, national elections are mandated to be held at least once every five years. However, the ruling party, in conjunction with the current prime minister, has the authority to decide on the timing of the election. While the deadline for a national election is November of this year, there is a possibility that it could be advanced and scheduled after the Parliament reconvenes at the end of this month.

The new report right HERE gives the basic details of how this works.

With Canada’s businesses reeling from a trade dispute with the US, Carney – a former two-time central banker – is expected to pitch himself as the candidate best equipped to take on Donald Trump.

The 60-year-old political newcomer took over as leader of the Liberal Party after former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stepped down from his nine-year term.

The prime minister’s announcement to call an election and request the dissolution of Parliament will kick off a five-week campaign for Carney and his political opponents.

Trudeau was an unpopular leader and his time as Prime Minister needed to come to an end in order to benefit not only the liberal party but the whole country of Canada. Now having done that, the new Prime Minister is using the threat of a trade war with the United States and the talk of Canada being absorbed as the 51st state as a battle cry for Canadian nationalism.

If Trudeau had fought to continue to lead the party the election would have been scheduled to happen anyway by the end of the fall and his fight with Trump would have probably continued to drag the liberal party down. That was probably the best-case scenario for Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre to become the new leader of the country and reset relations with President Trump and the United States.
