Mark Carney's Liberals Win Tight Canada Election Defined By Trump's Threats

Here are the latest updates on Canada election results:

1. ​​​​​​Canada's ruling Liberals have won Monday's election. Per CTV News and CBC projections, Liberals were leading or elected in 165 electoral districts, which are also called seats, followed by the Conservatives with 147. Yves-François Blanchet-led Bloc Québécois is projected to win 23 seats, while Jagmeet Singh's NDP may have to settle for just 7 seats.
2. Prime Minister Mark Carney had asked for a strong mandate to help him handle US President Donald Trump's tariffs and annexation threat, but CTV and CBC said the Liberals had not yet secured the 172 electoral districts they needed for a majority. Follow Live Updates Here.
3. In his first address after the victory, Prime Minister Mark Carney thanked Canadians for the mandate and pledged to fight against the US President's annexation threats. "President Trump is trying to break us so that America can own us, that will never ever happen," Carney said.
4. The newly elected Prime Minister said Canada should "never forget the lessons" of the United States's "betrayal," in a stark rebuke of President Donald Trump. "We will win this trade war," Carney told cheering supporters in Ottawa, while warning of "challenging" days ahead brought on by Trump's tariffs and annexation threats.
5. "We are over the shock of the American betrayal, but we should never forget the lessons," Carney said, adding that he will "discuss the future of two sovereign and independent nations" with Donald Trump in the coming days. He also stressed that the Liberal government will strengthen partnerships with countries in Europe and elsewhere.
6. Meanwhile, Canada's Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre conceded defeat in the country's election and promised to work with the Liberal government in countering US President Donald Trump's trade war and annexation threats. "We will always put Canada first," Poilievre told supporters in Canada's capital, adding: "Conservatives will work with the prime minister and all parties with the common goal of defending Canada's interests and getting a new trade deal that puts these tariffs behind us while protecting our sovereignty."
7. New Democratic Party (NDP) chief Jagmeet Singh, known to be a pro-Khalistan leader, resigned after he failed to retain his seat in the Canadian elections. Addressing supporters from riding in Burnaby Central, Singh acknowledged his party did not do as well as hoped in Monday's election but said, "We are only defeated if we stop fighting."
8. The Liberals' victory marked one of the most dramatic turnarounds in Canadian political history. On January 6, the day Trudeau announced he would resign, the Conservatives led the Liberals by more than 20 points in most polls. But Carney replacing Trudeau, combined with nationwide unease about Trump, transformed the race. 
9. Carney had promised a tough approach with Washington over its import tariffs and said Canada would need to spend billions to reduce its reliance on the U.S. But the right-of-centre Conservatives, who called for change after more than nine years of Liberal rule, showed unexpected strength.
10. Nearly 29 million of Canada's 41 million people were eligible to vote in the massive G7 country that spans six time zones. Results were still pending on the shape of Canada's 343 members of parliament, with 172 seats needed for a majority. The Liberals won a majority in 2015 but have governed with a minority since 2019.
