Ottawa: Canadians are going to elections today after an election campaign due to concerns over the tariffs and threats of US President Donald Trump.
His words of anxia to Canada instigated a wave of patriotism, promoting support for liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney, a political newcomer, with the experience of two major central banks.
On Sunday, a man ended the campaign on a sombre note on Sunday after rubbing an SUV through a crowd at a Filipino Community Festival in Vancouver, killing at least 11 people and injured dozens.
Carney briefly stopped his campaign, and he and Conservative leader Pierre Poilevere mentioned the tragedy in their final campaign programs. Duane Brat, Professor of Political Science at Mount Royal University in Calgary, said he did not expect a large -scale accidental incident to stop voters.
According to CTV News-Glob and Mail-Nainos Pol, Carney’s Liberals, in national support, gained 2.7 points on Polyvre’s conservators in national support. Nanos asserted 42.6% support to liberals and 39.9% in the election.
On Sunday, an EKOS pole suggested liberals to gain a six -point lead, and Liberals estimated to win most of the seats in the 343 -seat House of Commons and do not need to rely on a small party to rule.
Trump re-emerged as a campaign factor last week, announcing that he could increase 25% tariffs on Canadian-made cars because America does not want them. He said that he could first use “Economic Forces” to make Canada a 51st state.
Kelly Sounders, a political science professor at Brandon University, said, “This is probably the most resulting choice in my lifetime.” “Everything is so overscreen from the dangers emanating from the United States.”
Carney has emphasized that his experience of handling economic issues makes him the best leader to deal with Trump, while Poidelev has faced concerns about life, crime and cost of a housing crisis.
Trump on Monday reiterated his call to become a 51st state for Canada, in a social media post.
“Best wishes to the great people of Canada,” he said. “Choose the man who has the strength and knowledge to cut his taxes in half, increase his military power, free, up to the highest level in the world, your car, steel, aluminum, wood, energy, and all other businesses, quadruple in size, quadruple, zero tariffs or taxes, if Canada is ranked 51st.”
Polyre, who has seen support for the Carney Serge in recent months, Trump spoke of absorbing Canada, responding to the President’s comment on social media.
“President Trump, stay out of our election. Only those who decide the future of Canada are Canadians in Matpeti.”
Carney posted: “Elbow Up, Canada. #Never 51.” The “elbow up” is a hockey reference that Canadians have adopted as a slogan to stand for Trump.
Carney has demanded former Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to distance himself, which he said in January that he would resign in power after a decade after almost a decade. The conservatives led some 20 points around that time.
Polyre has attracted more young voters than usual for conservatives, focusing more on their campaign to live cost and crime.
Vancouver-based hostage broker 37-year-old Andy Hill said, “I am going to go to Carney on it because now, I think we need stability.” “Being in the English banking system and being in the Canadian banking system, he really understands the economy.”
66 -year -old cattle ranker Bob Lowe, who lives in the south of Calgary, said he had already voted for conservatives. He said that his top anxiety is to flagged Canada’s economic growth.
Until the US imposed tariffs, the economy had seen a recovery of a participation.
Conservatives focus on economy
Lowe said that conservatives have focused on all economy, and believe that liberals are preventing Canadian people’s concerns about Trump to win another term.
“Polyvere has succeeded in focusing on the economy and a strong Canada, and Carney’s campaign is based on fear,” Lovy said.
Saunders, however, predict that liberals will win the majority of the electoral districts, call the seats, and say it will take a “magical landscape” for conservatives to draw a win. Tensions with the US have motivated two small parties supporters, new Democratic Party and Block Qubeois to transfer to liberals.
A party needs to win 172 seats to form a majority government.
Most of the conservative support is in rural areas where there are less seats.
Carney, who covered more than 20 cities in its last week of the campaign, is tired by Carney, but according to party figures, 1,000 to 2,000 people tried to maintain their high proclamation in rallies to attend rallies.
Carney’s rallies have mostly attracted the old Canadian people and portrayed the placard, saying “Jaimis Le 51” (“Never 51”) and “United Nations Canada Fort” (“a strong Canada”).
The mention of Trump has been taken out loud.
Poilieve’s rallies have been large and Trump is often mentioned.
After the shocking time on Monday evening, the election results starting in the eastern provinces will come in the solution. The ballot papers are counted by hand.
