Canadians believe that Mark Carney is the man to stand up to Donald Trump | Colin Horgan

Mark Carney won the Liberal leadership race in a landslide, capturing 85.9% of the overall riding points on the first count.

Carney's commanding win outdoes even that of his predecessor, Justin Trudeau , who won the leadership in 2013 .

Carney is now not only Liberal party leader but in the coming days will be sworn in as prime minister.

An election looms soon for Canada , and we’ll see whether everything in Carney ’s life has prepared him for one more win. In the meantime, it seems like Carney is right where he wants to be. - Colin Horgan is a writer, producer, and political editor at CTV News Channel .
