'Poilievre sounds like mini-Trump': What Canadian voters had to say about election

In the Monday election, Mark Carney defeated Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre and officially became the Prime Minister of Canada.
In this election, US President Donald Trump played an important role in influencing the votes. His constant threats, like making Canada a 51st State and tariffs, have put the question in front of voters regarding the new leader.
The election results showed that the Canadian favoured Mark Carney over Pierre Poilievre.
Here's what voters said about the leaders:
A woman said, "I think who I voted for would be the best to take care of Trump."

In Toronto, Reid Warren cast his Liberal vote, citing the party as the optimal choice during economic uncertainty.
"I don't think there is a better choice right now," he said, voting in Toronto. "I know people believe in Poilievre but it's the same, like, soundbites that you get from anybody else. It sounds like mini-Trump to me."
Warren, employed at a wholesale food distribution centre, acknowledged the unity amongst Canadians strengthened by "all the shade being thrown from the States," but noted that 'it's definitely created some turmoil, that's for sure."
Toronto resident Duncan Garrow expressed concern about repeated American references to Canada as the '51st state' and similar disrespectful comments, suggesting these remarks warrant serious consideration.
"In a very bizarre, upside down, twisted way, this might be a good thing for Canada, because I think maybe we've had too much of a relationship with the United States. I mean, they're right there, they're always going to be our neighbor, our partner, our friend, hopefully. But thinking about other possibilities, thinking about cutting down some of our own barriers within Canada, but also thinking more internationally, just as a country, I think that's a very healthy, progressive way to be going forward."
Pakistani immigrant sisters Laiqa and Mahira Shoaib, who voted in Mississauga, Ontario, both sought change in Monday's election, influenced by Trump's statements and tariff policies.
The sisters, who arrived from Pakistan ten years ago, expressed dissatisfaction with the economic conditions and employment opportunities under Liberal leadership.
"It was different when we arrived," Laiqa Shoaib stated after voting. "We need to get out of Liberals."
Laiqa, 27, working in healthcare, supported the New Democratic Party, whilst Mahira, 25, a bank employee, voted Conservative, favouring Poilievre for his business acumen.
"We would definitely be the 51st state if Mark Carney wins," she remarked.
