Justin Trudeau Reelected as Canada's Prime Minister But Doesn't Win Majority
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canada's Liberal Party is poised to hold on to power and will form a
minority government, after a narrow election win over opposition
Conservatives on Monday. Incumbent Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called
the snap election in mid-August in a bid to win support for his response
to the pandemic.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau: "You are sending us back to work with a
clear mandate to get Canada through this pandemic and to the brighter
days ahead. And, my friends, that's exactly what we are ready to do."
