The ruling Liberal Party of Canada has won the national election in the North American country. The vote was held on Monday (April 28) in a completely changed electoral environment.

US President Donald Trump's tariffs and his desire to annex Canada and integrate it with the United States had become the main issues in the country before the election. Al Jazeera reported this information in a report on Tuesday (April 29).

The media outlet says that the ruling Liberal Party of Canada has won the national election in Canada, which has been discussed around US President Donald Trump's trade war and threats of territorial annexation.

The country's national broadcasters CBC and CTV News reported that according to the preliminary results published on Monday night, the Liberal Party is going to win the most seats in the 343 seats in parliament. As a result, Prime Minister Mark Carney will remain in power.

Carney, who has worked as an economist for a long time, presented himself in the election as a leader who protects Canada's interests under pressure from Trump. However, it is not yet certain whether he will get a single majority based on these results. If not, he may have to form a coalition government with the support of a smaller party.

Mark Carney, a former governor of the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England, has recently become active in politics and is leading the Liberals' centrist position. Trade tariffs, tariff increases and strategic threats with the United States have become important issues during the election.

Several policies of the Trump administration towards Canada have also been identified as being against Canada's interests.

Originally, the Canadian Conservatives were almost certain to win any election earlier this year; but Trump's tariffs and desire to make Canada the "51st state" have practically turned the politics of this North American country upside down. As a result, Mark Carney's Liberal Party has been given new life before the vote.

The Liberal Party was also ahead in the latest opinion polls before the midterm elections. An Ipsos poll on Sunday showed the Liberal Party with 42 percent support and the Conservative Party with 38 percent.

Earlier on Saturday, Angus Reid's poll had the Liberals with 44 percent support and the Conservatives with 40 percent support.
