Canada Election Results 2025 Live Updates: Mark Carney says 'Trump trying to break us so he can own us'
Canada Election Results 2025 Live Updates: Prime Minister Mark Carney will extend the Liberal Party's time in power after they secured a minority government in Monday's election. Conservative populist leader Pierre Poilievre admitted defeat but promised that he and his party will continue to question and keep the minority administration accountable.
The election comes months after former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau resigned earlier this year due to rising food and housing prices, as well as soaring immigration. Tariffs implemented by US President Donald Trump constituted a significant danger. PM Mark Carney is now dealing with a cost-of-living problem and Trump's threat to impose sweeping tariffs on Canada, which exports more than 75% of its goods to the United States.
Liberal leader and Prime Minister Mark Carney relied on his central banking knowledge to address challenges, whilst Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre blamed prior Liberal leadership for Canada's economic susceptibility to hostile American trade policies. Mail voting results and ballots cast at specific sites such as military bases and correctional institutions are also recorded on the Elections Canada website and made available to the media, albeit they may take longer to tabulate.
