The leader of Canada‘s Conservative Party responded to the election news on Sunday by blasting newly elected Liberal Party leader Mark Carney as being complicit in the economic policies of Justin Trudeau.

In a post on X, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre said with the election of Carney, the Liberal Party is trying to “trick” the Canadian people into voting for it again by choosing someone who is close to Trudeau and was his economic adviser in 2020.
