Canada's election on Monday follows a campaign dominated by concerns over US President Trump's threats. Mark Carney, replacing Justin Trudeau, is favoured, emphasising his experience to counter Trump's policies.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war and annexation threats have upended Canada’s election and dramatically improved the fortunes of the Liberal Party, which could win a fourth consecutive term in power next week.

By questioning Canada’s sovereignty, President Trump changed the focus of the race from the failings of the Liberal government to himself.
