💨 Abstract

Former Bank of England and Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney won the leadership race for Canada's Liberal Party and will succeed Justin Trudeau as prime minister. Carney, a political novice, beat former Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland in a contest with 152,000 party members. Carney will take office at a challenging time as Canada faces a trade war with the United States and must hold a general election soon.
