Good morning, Chi Hee.

Good morning Dami.

Let's begin with Canada's federal election results where the Liberal Party claimed victory.

That's right. Prime Minister Mark Carney led Canada's Liberal Party to victory, in an election dominated by tensions with the United States.

On Monday, local time, the Liberal Party secured governance for a fourth consecutive term. In his victory speech, Carney said his country would "never" yield to the United States.

"America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country. Never. But these are not these are not idle threats. President Trump is trying to break us so that America can own us. That will never. That will never, ever happen."

Carney's campaign gained momentum amid rising tensions with U.S. President Donald Trump, who had imposed tariffs on Canadian goods and said he wanted to make Canada the 51st state of the U.S.

In his victory speech, Carney emphasized Canada's independence and declared Canada will never be part of the U.S. in any way, shape, or form.

The Liberals secured 169 seats in the House of Commons, falling just short of the 172 needed for a majority.

This means the government will need support from smaller parties to stay in power.
