What will Mark Carney's victory mean for Canada-US ties? | Inside Story

It was an election result that looked not just improbable, but impossible, just a few months ago.
Canada has voted in the Liberal Party for another term in government.
That's a rare fourth consecutive mandate for the centre-left party.
Mark Carney, a former Central Banker and Economist, will stay on as Prime Minister.
He'll be the man sitting across the table from US President Donald Trump as the two neighbours - and once close allies - confront disagreements on tariffs, military spending, and even Canadian sovereignty.
So, where does Canada go from here?
And what will it mean for Canada-US relations?
