In a historic election in Canada, former Bank of England governor Mark Carney has emerged as the victor against Conservative candidate Pierre Poilievre, who was backed by former US president Donald Trump.
Carney, who ran as the leader of the Liberal Party, secured a landslide victory, with his campaign focusing on progressive policies and a vision of unity for Canada. Poilievre, on the other hand, ran a controversial campaign with the backing of Trump, which seemed to have backfired with Canadian voters.
The results of the election have been met with mixed reactions, with many praising Carney's win as a step in the right direction for Canada, while others express concern about the influence of foreign politics in the election.
Despite the challenges and controversies surrounding the election, Carney's victory signals a new chapter for Canada, with many hopeful for positive change and unity in the country's future.

In a fiery election debate, Labor leader Anthony Albanese and Coalition leader Peter Dutton sparred over defense spending and cost of living issues in the lead up to the 2025 election. With both parties releasing their policy platforms, voters are faced with a clear choice between the two major parties.

According to reports, intelligence agencies have uncovered evidence suggesting that foreign actors, possibly linked to the Indian government, have been attempting to influence the outcome of the election.

In a closely watched election, Ecuador's presidential race is heading to a runoff between conservative incumbent Daniel Noboa and leftist lawyer Luisa Gonzalez. Noboa, who has been in power since 2022, is facing a strong challenge from Gonzalez, who has been hailed as a progressive voice in Ecuadorian politics.
The election, which took place on Sunday, saw Noboa narrowly miss the 40% threshold needed to avoid a runoff. With a dwindling economy and high unemployment rates, voters are looking for a candidate who can bring about meaningful change.
Noboa, who has been criticized for his handling of the country's economic woes, is hoping to win over undecided voters by touting his track record as president. Meanwhile, Gonzalez is appealing to voters with promises of social reform and economic justice.
The runoff election is set to take place in the coming weeks, with both candidates already gearing up for what is expected to be a fiercely contested race. The outcome of the election could have far-reaching implications for Ecuador's future, as voters decide between two vastly different visions for the country.
