Canadian Election Threatens Justin Trudeau’s Grip on Power
September 20, 2021, 12:43 pm OTTAWA—After calling for an election meant to secure a stronger mandate, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau instead faces a tight vote as Canadians head to the polls on Monday.
The snap parliamentary elections were called by Mr. Trudeau halfway through his four-year term in mid-August, when Canada’s Liberal Party was riding high in the polls following Mr. Trudeau’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic. Mr. Trudeau invoked his powers to dissolve Parliament and call a vote, gambling his party he could win a legislative majority to push through an agenda that includes expanded access to child care and aggressive measures to fight climate change. | Recommended news
