Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau won a second term in the Canadian national elections on Monday, losing the majority but delivering unexpectedly strong results despite having been weakened by a series of scandals that tarnished his image as a liberal icon.<\/p>\n
The liberal Trudeau party held the largest number of seats in Parliament, giving it the best opportunity to form a government. However, not reaching the majority meant that liberals would have to rely on an opposition party to pass the legislation.<\/p>\n
"It's not the same as 2015. It's not all due to the leader," said Robert Bothwell, a professor of Canadian history and international relations at the University of Toronto. <\/p>\n
"Trudeau is prime minister because the rest of the party could recover and prevail. While Trudeau certainly deserves credit for what happened, he will really have to demonstrate qualities that he has not yet demonstrated."<\/p>\n
Even so, the results were a victory for Trudeau, whose clean image received a blow after old photos of him appeared in black face and brown face last month.<\/p>\n
"I am surprised at how well Trudeau has done it," said Nelson Wiseman, a professor of political science at the University of Toronto. <\/p>\n
"I don't think anyone expected Trudeau to get the majority, but they aren't that far."<\/p>\n
With the results still arriving early Tuesday, the Liberals had 157 seats, 13 less than the 170 needed for a majority in the House of Commons of 338 seats.<\/p>\n
"Tonight, Canadians rejected division and negativity. They rejected cuts and austerity. They chose a progressive agenda and strong action on climate change," Trudeau said early Tuesday.<\/p>\n
His speech to supporters came, unusually, as his conservative rival, Andrew Scheer, had just begun talking to his own supporters, forcing the networks to depart from Scheer's speech.<\/p>\n
But the prime minister made a conciliatory note: "For those who did not vote for us, know that we will work every day for you, we will rule for all," Trudeau said.<\/p>\n
In his award speech, Scheer said the results showed that Trudeau was very weakened since his 2015 election, when experts had predicted the start of another Trudeau dynasty.<\/p>\n
"Tonight conservatives have warned Justin Trudeau," said Scheer. "And Mr. Trudeau, when your government falls, the conservatives will be ready and we will win."<\/p>\n
Trudeau's liberals will probably depend on the new Democrats to form a new government and pass legislation. Opposition The new Democratic leader Jagmeet Singh said early today that he congratulated Trudeau and promised to play a constructive role in Parliament.<\/p>\n
Before the vote, the polls showed a contest across the country when Trudeau, who assumed power as a charismatic figure who promised "sunny forms," \u200b\u200bfought the conservative leader Scheer for the opportunity to form the next government.<\/p>\n
Trudeau, 47, the leader of the Liberal Party, was backed by former US President Barack Obama in the final leg of the campaign and is seen as one of the last progressive leaders left among the world's leading democracies.<\/p>\n
But he was shaken during the campaign by a black-faced scandal and has been prosecuted for criticism for his handling of a corruption case involving a major Canadian construction company. Trudeau, son of the late liberal Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, has also had to overcome a sense of fatigue with his government.<\/p>\n
Trudeau, accompanied by his family, voted in Montreal on Monday after a marathon campaign across the country in the last four days. Scheer voted in his Saskatchewan constituency.<\/p>\n
On Twitter, Trudeau repeatedly urged people to go out and vote. Electoral participation is crucial for liberals, who privately fear that low commitment will affect them more than conservatives.<\/p>\n
"(A minority government) would force people to talk to each other, which is what we need," said Naomi Higgins, a 25-year-old voter in Toronto who supported the liberals four years ago, but was changed to the Greens in these elections. . <\/p>\n
"We need to […] start doing your best for everyone instead of what makes one party or another look better. "<\/p>\n
The Greens led or were elected in a seat, while the separatist Qu\u00e9bec Block led or elected in 33 seats in the province of Quebec.<\/p>\n
The liberal campaign strategists say that four members of Trudeau's cabinet could lose their parliamentary seats, including Public Security Minister Ralph Goodale, a veteran member of parliament who is seen as one of the heavyweights of the government.<\/p>\n
Goodale, 70, is the only liberal member of parliament in the western province of Saskatchewan, where anger towards Trudeau is increasing by federal environmental policies that, according to the energy industry, will damage production.<\/p>\n
The main lobbying group in the oil industry blamed Trudeaus' policies for limiting investments in the sector, and some global energy companies have lost assets in the Alberta oil sands region, the country's leading oil producing province.<\/p>\n
However, Canada's economy has experienced a general uptick in 2019.<\/p>\n
The Canadian dollar has been the best performing G10 currency this year, with an increase of more than 4 percent against its US counterpart, as the economy added jobs at a robust pace and inflation remained closed at the 2pc target of the Bank of Canada<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/pre>\n<\/pre>\n
