After Justin Trudeau's resignation, a former central banker with no prior elected office took charge of Canada's government in 2025.

Who became Canada's prime minister and led the Liberal Party to victory in the April 2025 election?

Mark Carney
Carney, a former Bank of Canada and Bank of England governor, became Liberal leader and PM in March 2025, then won an April snap election as voters favored his experience confronting Trump's tariff threats, and the Liberals fell just short of a majority, forming a minority government instead.

Mark Carney, a former central banker with no prior elected office, became Canada's prime minister and led the Liberals to victory in April 2025. He had previously headed the Bank of Canada and Bank of England, and voters favored his experience amid U.S. tariff threats.

Pierre Poilievre led the opposing Conservative Party, and Chrystia Freeland, while a prominent Liberal, did not become prime minister, neither fits the winning Liberal leader.

The Liberals fell just short of a majority, forming a minority government instead, meaning Carney needed cooperation from other parties, common in Canadian politics without an outright majority.
