The Liberal Party, led by Justin Trudeau since 2013, won a majority government in the 2015 federal election, ending nearly a decade of Conservative Party rule. In both the federal elections of 2019 and 2021, the Liberals were re-elected with a minority government. In early 2022, the Liberals struck a deal with the opposition New Democratic Party to keep the minority government in power until 2025.
The 45th federal election will be held on October 20, 2025 (as specified in the Canada Elections Act), or earlier if Parliament is dissolved by the Governor general.
