Canada 's Liberal Party has surged in the polls in the wake of US President Donald Trump 's threats against Canada .

Trump 's rhetoric has "pushed away all of the other issues" that were top of mind for Canadians before his inauguration, says Luc Turgeon , a political science professor at the University of Ottawa .

New leader will have two immediate decisions to make: how to respond to the threats, and when to call a general election.

Conservatives have started digging into Carney 's loyalty to Canada in recent weeks .

They have questioned whether he had a role in moving the headquarters of Brookfield Asset Management from Toronto to New York .

Carney has responded that he had left the firm by the time that decision was made.
