Liberal Leader Mark Carney declared the upcoming federal election, set for April 28, as potentially the “most important election of our lifetime,” a sentiment echoed by various political figures and groups. As Canada faces significant issues, including a historic tariff war with the U.S. and threats from U.S. President Donald Trump, a recent poll indicates that these concerns resonate as the primary focus for many voters. Historical context shows that claims of “most important elections” in Canada have been made approximately every decade since 1841, highlighting the recurring nature of such assertions.
