Mark Carney Wins Canadian Majority

Mark Carney Wins Canadian Majority

Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberal Party has successfully clinched a majority government after winning key by-elections in Toronto and Montreal.

The victory follows months of political maneuvering, including several high-profile floor-crossings that brought the party closer to the 172-seat threshold.

Carney has framed the win as a mandate to protect Canada's economy from U.S. trade volatility and to expand energy exports.

Opposition leaders have expressed concern over the shifting parliamentary balance as the government prepares to implement its new policy agenda.
