Canadian elections: Liberal and Conservative frontrunners race to the finish line | DW News

On Monday, millions of Canadians began voting in federal elections. The snap election will decide Canada's new prime minister, after a campaign dominated by Trump's annexation threats and a tariff war with the US, Canada’s largest trading partner. The Liberal Party's leader, Prime Minister Mark Carney, called the election after taking over from Justin Trudeau. Carney's main political rival is Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre. The winner of the elections will have to confront Trump's aggressive policies and threats to make Canada a 51s state of the US.

DW's Correspondent Janelle Dumalaon reports from Ottawa, Canada.
