Canada 2025 Election Results: Liberals Poised for Victory

Canada 2025 election results

Canada’s Liberal Party, led by newly appointed Prime Minister Mark Carney, is projected to secure victory in the federal election, according to Canadian media outlets. The election has been dominated not only by domestic issues but also by escalating tensions with U.S. President Donald Trump, whose aggressive rhetoric and trade tariffs have deeply impacted the political landscape.

Liberals Projected to Form Government Amid Rising Tensions with U.S.

CTV and CBC, Canada’s leading broadcasters, have projected that the Liberals will win enough seats to form a fourth consecutive government. However, it remains unclear whether they will achieve a majority (172 seats required) or govern as a minority.

The campaign, marked by instability and U.S.-Canada tensions, was Carney’s first test as party leader following Justin Trudeau’s resignation just a month ago. Carney’s rise in popularity has been fueled by his strong opposition to Trump’s provocative comments — including a threat to make Canada “the 51st state” — and a series of punishing trade tariffs targeting key Canadian industries.

Mark Carney: From Central Banker to National Leader

Carney, a former governor of both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, is seen as a stabilizing force during uncertain times. Though he has no prior elected political experience, his decades in finance have earned him credibility as a crisis manager.

“I reject any attempts to weaken Canada, to wear us down, to break us so that America can own us,” Carney said during a press conference in late March. “We are masters in our own home.”

Conservative Momentum Stalls as Trump Threats Reshape Campaign

Initially, the Conservative Party, led by veteran MP Pierre Poilievre, was favored to win after Trudeau stepped down amid plummeting approval ratings, internal dissent, and a worsening cost-of-living crisis.

However, Trump’s steep tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminum, and cars, along with threats targeting lumber and pharmaceuticals, dramatically shifted public opinion. Carney’s assertive stance on protecting Canadian sovereignty resonated with many undecided voters, narrowing the gap in the final days of the campaign.

Carney has centered his campaign around economic resilience and reducing Canada’s dependency on the U.S. He pledged to invest in domestic manufacturing, affordable housing, and both clean and traditional energy sectors to drive job creation and national security.

“My solemn promise is to stand up for Canadian workers, to stand up for Canadian businesses,” Carney told supporters. “We will stand up for our history, our values, and our sovereignty.”

A New Foreign Policy Direction: Looking Beyond the U.S.

While Carney has not ruled out talks with President Trump, he has made clear that Canada will seek deeper relationships with more “reliable” global partners. In a symbolic move, Carney’s first international trip as prime minister was to Europe, where he met with leaders from France and the United Kingdom to strengthen economic and defense ties.

“In a crisis, it’s important to come together and act with force and purpose,” Carney stated. “That’s what we will do.”

Canadians Back a Steady Hand Amid Global Uncertainty

Political analysts suggest that many voters view Carney as uniquely qualified to navigate a potential trade war and safeguard Canada’s economic future. His background in global finance and crisis management is seen as a valuable asset in countering Trump’s unpredictable policies.

As Canada awaits the final seat count, the projected Liberal win marks a significant moment in the country’s political evolution — one shaped not only by internal challenges but also by mounting pressure from a once-friendly neighbor.
