Canadians re-elect Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party after tight race
TRT World says Canadians have given Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party a victory in parliamentary elections, but it was unclear whether his gamble to win a majority of seats paid off.
The Liberals were on track to win the most seats of any party. The 49-year-old Trudeau channeled the star power of his father, the Liberal icon and late Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, when he first won election in 2015 and now appears to have led his party to the top finish in two elections since.
The Liberals were leading in 148 ridings, the Conservatives in 103, the Quebec-based Bloc Quebecois in 28 and the leftist New Democratic Party in 22.
