Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre make their final pitches before Canada's election, focusing on leadership and change. Carney's Liberals lead in the polls, but Poilievre's Conservatives are closing the gap, especially in Ontario, as both candidates address recent tragedy.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre are making their final appeals to voters before Monday’s election, which will determine who negotiates with U.S. President Donald Trump over tariffs. Carney campaigned in Ontario on Saturday, emphasizing his leadership abilities to guide Canada through the crisis caused by Trump’s tariffs. Poilievre, in contrast, is focusing on the need for change after nearly ten years of Liberal rule under former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
The impact of a tragic incident in Vancouver, where a vehicle struck a crowd at a festival, on the election is uncertain. Carney and Poilievre both expressed their condolences for the victims. Despite the uncertainty, Carney’s Liberal Party holds a slight lead in the polls, with Poilievre’s Conservatives closing the gap, especially in Ontario.
Carney’s team is optimistic about securing a Liberal win, even though a majority of seats may be uncertain. According to recent polls, the gap between the two main parties has narrowed to a few percentage points. Poilievre’s message of change and reducing living costs resonates with many voters, especially younger men. Meanwhile, Carney is campaigning with older voters and advocating for large infrastructure projects to strengthen Canada's position in trade negotiations with the U.S.
