Liberal Party of Canada leadership candidates Karina Gould, Frank Baylis, Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney greet one another prior to the English-language Liberal Leadership debate in Montreal on Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2025. The Federal Liberals will pick a new leader on March 9.

Canadians will soon find out who the Liberal Party has chosen as their new leader — the person who will become  prime minister amid economic turbulence and a deeply wounded relationship with the country's once closest ally.
