Mark Carney’s Liberal Party has won Canada’s federal election but fell short of a majority, meaning they will need support from smaller parties to govern. The vote came during high tensions with the U.S., including threats from President Donald Trump. Carney, 60, is a respected economist and former central bank chief who became Liberal leader in March, replacing Justin Trudeau. This is his first time in elected office.
