Canadian Prime Minister Carney calls April 28 National election

Canada’s political landscape is shifting fast — and the race to lead the country through rising global tensions and domestic pressures is officially on. With an election set for April 28, new Liberal leader Mark Carney faces off against a confident Pierre Poilievre and a vocal Jagmeet Singh, all staking claims on the economy, health care, and Canada’s place in a world reshaped by Trump’s return. The campaign begins not with fanfare, but with urgency — and high stakes for what comes next.
