Canada's Liberal Party secured a fourth consecutive term after a narrow win in an election

that was seen as one of the most consequential in its recent history.

Liberal Party candidate and interim Prime Minister Mark Carney flipped his party's fortunes

with a campaign focused on combating President Trump's tariffs and threats of annexation. Nick Schifrin has the story.

In Ottawa today, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney returned to his office victorious.

After celebrating a victory that he's scripted with an unlikely co-writer.

President Trump is trying to break us so that America can own us.

That will never, that will never, ever happen.

We will fight Trump's counterterrorism.

Carney's combative tone throughout the campaign against President Trump's taunts.

So I think Canada is going to be a very serious contender to be our 51st state.

Led Carney and the Liberal Party to a remarkable reversal of fortune.

In January, when former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stepped down,

I intend to resign as party leader, as prime minister.

Trudeau and the Liberal Party appeared set to lose by double digits.

But Trump maintained his pressure, disparaging Trudeau, vowing imperial expansion, and portraying Canada not as a neighbor, but an economic drag.

They should be a state. I mean that. I really mean that because we can't be expected to carry a country.

Anti-Trump's sentiment in Canada surged and became a newfound nationalism.

That helped Carney, who's led both the Canadian and the British central banks,

portray himself as the best candidate

to take on Trump.

It is a scary time with what's happening across the border in the United States.
