  • Good morning from the Financial Times.

  • Today is Monday, March 10, and this is your FT news briefing.

  • Canada's ruling Liberal Party has elected a new leader and therefore a new prime minister.

  • And a tough antitrust enforcer is likely headed to the U.S. justice Department.

  • Plus, illegal gold mining is devastating cocoa farming in Ghana.

  • I'm Kasia Bresalian and here's the news you need to start your day.

  • In first place, the next Prime Minister of Canada, Mark Carney.

  • Representing 85.9% of the vote, Mark Carney will replace Justin Trudeau as Canada's Prime Minister.

  • The country's Liberal Party made the announcement yesterday after a leadership vote.

  • We're all being called to stand up for each other and for the Canadian way of life.

  • So let me ask you, who's ready.

  • Pierre Flair, who's ready to stand up for Canada with me?

  • The two time central bank governor defeated former Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland for the top job.

  • But he might not be leading Canada for long.

  • By law,

  • Carney will have to call a general election no later than October and it'll probably happen much sooner.

  • Polling says the race between Carney and Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre will be close.

  • Whoever wins will have one big how to manage growing tensions with the US Cabinet.

  • Confirmations for US President Donald Trump have been,

  • well, pretty partisan affairs for the most part.
