The date of swearing in of the elected Prime Minister of Canada has been announced


Canadian Prime Minister-elect and Liberal Party leader Mark Carney will take the oath of office on March 14. This was announced on March 12 by the CTV News channel.
Governor-General of Canada Mary Simon confirmed that the ceremony will take place at the Rideau Hall Official Residence in Ottawa at 11:00 local time (18:00 GMT). On the same day, acting Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will resign, after which Carney will introduce new cabinet members, with whom he will take the oath of office.
Carney's victory in the race for the post of Prime Minister of Canada became known on March 10. The Reuters news agency reported that the former central bank governor won 86% of the vote and was ahead of former Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland. Slightly less than 152 thousand members of the Liberal Party took part in the voting.
Later, Denis Denisov, an expert at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, expressed concerns that Carney could worsen relations with the United States, as he would act tougher than his predecessor Trudeau. The prime minister-elect, in turn, promised that Canada would win the trade war with Washington.
