Canadian-American musician Neil Young has endorsed Mark Carney, the Liberal Party leader, in the upcoming Canadian federal election on April 28. In his endorsement, Young praised Carney's capabilities, stating, 'You’ve got the chops to get it done,' and emphasized the need for strong leadership to address the challenges Canada faces. Young's endorsement comes with a critique of U.S. President Donald Trump, suggesting that Trump 'could use a soul.' This comment reflects ongoing tensions between Canada and the U.S., particularly over trade and sovereignty issues. Young, who recently became a U.S. citizen, expressed his continued connection to Canada, stating, 'Although I have lived in the United States for most of my life, and recently became a citizen of the USA, I am a Canadian and always will be.' Carney, who has taken over as Liberal leader from Justin Trudeau, has been actively campaigning against the backdrop of Trump's policies, which have included threats of tariffs on Canadian exports. Carney's leadership is seen as crucial in navigating these economic challenges.
