Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals retained power in parliamentary elections but fell short of the outright majority Carney had sought to help him negotiate with U.S. President Donald Trump on tariffs that are threatening Canada's economy.

Prime Minister Mark Carney, who took the helm from his unpopular predecessor, Justin Trudeau, in March, led Liberals back from the brink of disaster to win 43.5% of the vote in the federal election against the Conservative Party of Pierre Poilievre, which received just over 41%. The turnaround was remarkable.
