Canada, Trudeau’s liberals win elections but no majority seats

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party won early elections, according to projections by CBC and CTV News. According to the latest data, it would be in the lead with 156 of the 338 seats in the House of Commons, below the threshold of the majority (170). The Conservatives would be 121. At the helm of Canada since 2015, the 49-year-old Liberal Prime Minister has been head of a minority government for two years. His third term as prime minister was historic, but the elections had been called by Trudeau with the hope of obtaining an absolute majority in Parliament.
