Canadian Election: Early Results Suggest Tight Race For Liberal And Conservative Parties

Posted by: lukwago J in World news April 29, 2025

The Canadian election is heating up as the Liberal Party’s Mark Carney and Conservative Pierre Poilievre compete to lead the country as the next prime minister. Early results indicate a neck-and-neck battle between the two candidates, with the Liberals holding 23 seats compared to the Conservatives’ eleven.

In order to secure a majority in the House of Commons, a party needs to claim 172 seats. Present projections reveal that both the Liberal and Conservative parties have a long way to go to achieve this goal, setting the stage for a potentially intense and closely fought Canadian election.

A historic election’s climactic moment

As the clock struck 22:00 EDT (03:00 BST) in British Columbia, polling stations across Canada shut their doors, marking the end of voting in what has been a crucial election for the nation.

The final ballots have been cast, and now the nation awaits the outcome of this pivotal moment in its history.

Just six weeks ago, Mark Carney assumed the role of Prime Minister, taking over from his party colleague Justin Trudeau.

The spotlight has been on Carney’s leadership abilities and vision for Canada, especially in response to the demands of US President Donald Trump.

Trump’s repeated calls for Canada to become the 51st US state have added another layer of complexity to an already intense campaign.
