The liberals of the Prime Minister Mark carney They won the Canadian elections, according to the projections of various media, giving the party another mandate to power after a campaign conditioned by the threats of the President of the United States Donald Trump. The CBC and CTV news public issuer have provided that the liberals will form the next Government of Canada, even if it is not yet clear if they have the majority in Parliament. Speaking to his supporters in Ottawa after the victory of the elections, the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carley said that His country will never forget the American “betrayal”. “Our old relationship with the United States is over” – he said – because “President Trump is trying to break us to own us”, he said, inviting the country to join the “difficult months to come that will require sacrifices”.
Poiievre admits the defeat: “Now with Carney against Trump”
The Canadian conservative leader Pierre thenlievre He promised to collaborate with the liberal government to counter the commercial war and the threats of annexation of the US president Donald Trump. “We will always put Canada in first place,” he told supporters, adding: “Conservatives will collaborate with the Prime Minister and all the parties with the common goal of defending the interests of Canada and obtaining a new commercial agreement that leaves us these duties behind us, while protecting our sovereignty”.
Who is Mark Carney
He led two central banks but had never been elected. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who won the General Elections on Monday, is used to navigating the storm. With the victory of his party in the legislative elections, he will have to quickly test himself against Donald Trump. A challenge he says he can win: «I am more useful in times of crisis. I am not very good in peacetime, “he recently said, amused, to a small audience in a bar from Ontario. In a few weeks, this sixty -year -old novice of politics managed to convince the Canadians that his competence in economic and financial matters makes him the right man to guide the country immersed in an unprecedented crisis. In fact, the recession threatens this nation of the G7, the largest ninth economy in the world, after the imposition of the customs duties by Trump, which continues to repeat that the fate of Canada is to become an American state. Born in Fort Smith, in the far north, but grown in Edmonton, in this rather rural and conservative Canadian West, Mark Carney is the father of four daughters and hockey enthusiast. He studied at Harvard and Oxford, before making luck as an investment banker at Goldman Sachs, New York, London, Tokyo and Toronto. In 2008, in the middle of the global financial crisis, he was appointed governor of the Banca del Canada by the conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Five years later, he was chosen by British Prime Minister David Cameron to direct the bank of England, becoming the first foreigner to direct the institution. Shortly thereafter, he will find himself in front of the turbulence caused by the Brexit vote. A task carried out with “conviction, rigor and intelligence”, according to the then chancellor of the British chessboard, Sajid Javid. Voices have been circulating for years on his entry into politics. But it was only in early January, after the resignation of Justin Trudeau, of which he had been an economic councilor, who decided to throw himself into the Arena. After conquering the liberal party in early March, he became prime minister and launched the elections later, saying that he needed a “strong mandate” to face Trump’s threats, which tried to “break” Canada. A real bet for this former hockey goalkeeper who had never campaign and who took the reins of a party at his lowest point in the polls, weighed down by the impopolarity of Justin Trudeau at the end of his mandate. And many analysts have questioned his ability to overturn the situation on many Canadians, while many Canadians have blamed the liberals for high inflation and the real estate crisis in the country. Little charismatic, in contrast with the bright image of Justin Trudeau in his first days, it seems that it is precisely his seriousness and his curriculum who finally convinced the majority of the Canadians. “It is a bit of a boring technocrat, which weigh every word that says,” says Daniel Bèland of McGill University of Montreal. But also “a specialist in public policies that master his dossiers very well”. “This profile is reassuring and satisfies the expectations of the Canadians to manage this crisis,” adds Geneviève Tellier. His main opponent during the campaign, the conservative Pierre Poilievre, described him as a member of the “èlite who does not understand what ordinary people are passing,” said Lori Turnbull, a Dalhousie University professor. It remains a topic that seems to make him lose the phlegm: the question of his goods. According to Bloomberg, in December he had a stock option for a value of several million dollars. Tension with journalists during the election campaign concerned this personal fortune
