Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is promising to tighten financial transparency rules for elected officials — and is using that promise to take aim at Liberal Leader Mark Carney.

Prime Minister Mark Carney says Canada must strengthen ties with France and other allies in the face of geopolitical and economic crises.

Only two of the candidates in the Liberal leadership race — Mark Carney and Ruby Dhalla — disclosed their fundraising events to Elections Canada.

In the coming days, Carney will need to be sworn in as prime minister, name a new cabinet and sort out his plans for the coming federal election.

It's not clear when Carney will be sworn in as prime minister. After the Liberal event, hundreds of his supporters attended a victory party at an Ottawa venue, where Carney encouraged the crowd to party tonight, then get to work tomorrow.

Even when Mark Carney was still in high school, his friends bugged him about whether he would become prime minister one day.

Liberal MPs are gathering on Parliament Hill this afternoon to huddle after the party selected its new leader, former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney.

Carney is the presumed front-runner for the party's leadership and could become prime minister as early as next week — which would make Trump's growing trade war with Canada his problem to sort out.

On Wednesday, the Conservative party accused Carney of lying to the media after Tuesday's Liberal leadership debate and of indirectly helping U.S. President Donald Trump in his quest to get firms to relocate to the U.S.

With the debates now done, Liberal party members can start casting advance ballots today to select their next leader a little under two weeks from now.
