Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will remain in power in Ottawa, but his ruling Liberal Party has been unable to secure the majority mark it had desperately sought in the Canada elections that were held on Monday. Trudeau, in power since 2015 and governing with a minority of House of Commons seats since 2019. Justin Trudeau himself had initiated the call for snap polls in mid-August to turn his minority government into a majority one. But the results of the 2021 Canada elections have turned out to be almost a replay of the 2019 polls. Trudeau wanted to capitalize on his government’s handling of the pandemic, which included massive spending to support individuals and businesses and a push for high vaccination rates.
