Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney
Mark Carney has been sworn in as Canada's prime minister, succeeding Justin Trudeau, as the country faces questions about its sovereignty from US President Donald Trump and a trade war with Canada's largest trading partner, the United States.
Mr. Carney, a former central banker who has never held public office in Canada, is stepping in to confront the challenges facing the country, including leading the Liberal Party into an election to be held later this year.
Mr. Trudeau stepped down after nearly a decade in power.
