Here’s what to know about Canada’s snap election

Mark Carney declared a snap election on March 23, with voting set for April 28, giving candidates only 37 days to campaign.
The election will feature 343 seats up for grabs across Canada, with the main competition between Carney's Liberals and Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives.
Carney criticized U.S. President Donald Trump's trade actions, calling them a threat to Canada in his acceptance speech, citing the trade war as 'the greatest crisis of our lifetime.'
Carney's leadership has been influenced by a surge in public support for the Liberals due to American President Donald Trump's comments about Canada.
