Canada election results: What’s at stake, and what the polls say

Liberal Party's Mark Carney and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre are facing off as lead rivals in the Canadian election this year.

Millions of Canadians are queuing up to cast their ballots on Monday in the country’s 45th election to select a new government.

The elections are taking place in the shadow of a trade war with the United States, and at a time of economic uncertainty in the world’s second-largest nation by area.
