Conservatives once had a 25-point lead ahead of Canada's next election. That lead has since vanished. Experts say Trump's actions may changed the course of the election.

Canadian Prime Minster Mark Carney's Liberal Party will retain its hold on power, in a reversal of fortunes seen largely as a reaction to Mr. Trump's actions and rhetoric.

However, polls show that a large majority of Canadians view Trump in a negative light. A new poll from Politico and Focaldata, which surveyed 2,826 Canadians from April 18 to April 13, found that only 14 percent of respondents view Trump favorably, while 75 percent view him unfavorably.

TORONTO (AP) — The Liberal Party has won the federal election in Canada, culminating a process marked by U.S. President Donald Trump threats on a trade war and of making the country the 51st American state.
