In his victory speech, Carney thanked the other candidates and spoke about the importance of unity, particularly in light of the tariff threats coming from the United States.
“America is not Canada," he said. "And Canada never, ever, will be part of America in any way, shape or form. We didn’t ask for this fight, but Canadians are always ready when someone else drops the gloves. So Americans should make no mistake, in trade as in hockey, Canada will win.”
Village Media's Katherine DeClerq, the editor of ParliamentToday, joins us tonight to talk about Carney's big win — and when Canadians can expect an election call. You can read her coverage HERE.
