Former central banker Mark Carney will become Canada’s next prime minister after the governing Liberal Party elected him its leader as the country deals with U.S.

Carney, 59, a political novice, will take over at a tumultuous time in Canada, which is in the midst of a trade war with the United States.

Carney cast himself during the campaign as an even-keeled political outsider with the economic bona fides to take on Trump and manage a trade war.
