Canada re-elects Justin Trudeau, What Happen?
Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party is projected to win enough seats in the election for him to stay on as Canada’s Prime Minister. Erin O’Toole, the leader of the main opposition Conservative party, has conceded defeat. But Trudeau’s gamble to win a majority of seats by calling a snap election appears to have failed. The Prime Minister’s proposition that the election needed to happen now, two years early and in the mindset of an ongoing pandemic, will continue to draw scrutiny.
As Prime Minister, major government initiatives
he undertook during his first term include legalizing recreational marijuana
through the Cannabis
Act; attempting Senate appointment reform by establishing
the Independent Advisory Board for Senate
Appointments and establishing the federal carbon tax; while grappling with
ethics investigations concerning the Aga Khan affair and
later, the SNC-Lavalin
affair. In foreign policy, Trudeau's government negotiated trade
deals such as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA)
and the Comprehensive and Progressive
Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership
