Canadians voted in an election scrambled by Trump’s threats
Canadians participated in a pivotal election influenced by President Trump’s trade war and annexation threats, with Prime Minister Mark Carney’s Liberal Party holding a slight lead over Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives. The election is deemed crucial for shaping Canada’s future response to U.S. pressures, particularly regarding tariffs and resource management. Meanwhile, Putin declared a three-day cease-fire in Ukraine, prompting skepticism from Ukraine’s foreign minister, as Trump urged an end to hostilities, highlighting ongoing geopolitical tensions.
