Caption: Mark Carney to Become Canada’s Prime Minister, Pledges to Take on Trump. Mark Carney has won the race to succeed Justin Trudeau as Canada’s prime minister securing a landslide victory in the Liberal Party leadership contest. The former central bank governor—who has never held elected office—takes charge at a time of economic and political uncertainty. In his victory speech, Carney directly criticized US President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada, vowing to win the trade war. He rejected Trump’s suggestion that Canada should become the 51st US state declaring, “In trade, as in hockey, Canada will win”. Carney is set to be sworn in within days and will lead the Liberals into an upcoming general election, expected to be called soon.
