Canada’s Liberals are celebrating election victory in a stunning turn of fortune. The country won't know until later Tuesday whether the party of new Prime Minister Mark Carney will have an outright majority or need help in Parliament. And the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation projects that populist Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre will lose his Parliament seat. That caps a stunning turnaround in fortunes fueled by U.S. President Donald Trump’s annexation threats and trade war. Poilievre a few months ago appeared to be a shoo-in to become Canada’s next prime minister and shepherd the Conservatives back into power for the first time in a decade.
