Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney has spoken to US President Donald Trump the day after his Liberal Party won a fourth consecutive election.

The leaders agreed to meet in person "in the near future", according to a statement from the PM's office.

The Liberals will only form a minority government, however, after falling short of a majority in the House of Commons, according to a projection by public broadcaster CBC.

That means Carney will have to rely on other political parties to pass legislation.

His main rival, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, is projected to have lost his own seat. Jagmeet Singh, leader of the New Democratic Party (NDP) was also defeated.

The election was dominated by discussions about Trump and his repeated threat to make Canada the US's "cherished 51st state".

In an exclusive interview with the BBC, Carney said his country deserves respect from the US and will only enter trade and security talks with Trump "on our terms".

By and large, Canadian voters seem to have moved away from the smaller parties towards the Liberals and Conservatives.

Western Canada’s seats have overwhelmingly turned blue. Oil-rich Alberta and Saskatchewan have historically felt overlooked by politicians in Canada's capital, and voters we spoke to there felt the Liberals were focusing more on the US than on local issues. Some even advocate for separation from Canada. The return of a Liberal government could exacerbate that feeling, especially since they won few seats there.

The New Democratic Party, whose roots are in Saskatchewan, appear to have suffered their worst defeat since 1993 partly because they stuck with Justin Trudeau’s ill-fated government. Plus, some voters I spoke to say they think NDP supporters voted strategically for the Liberals.

*The issue of independence has long simmered in Quebec, but voters appear to have rallied behind the Liberals in the face of Trump's attacks. Émilie Foster, an adjunct professor in politics at Carleton University told the BBC last week that "we prefer to be part of Canada instead of being part of the United States, if we have to choose".

What the election has not told us is whether issues that affect Canada's indigenous communities, particularly in the north, will be addressed. Much of the national campaign has focused on Trump. Northern communities however are more concerned about food security, access to clean water, transport and infrastructure.

Pranav Kalsi, an NDP supporter and first time voter from Richmond, British Columbia, says he is happy that the Liberals defeated the Conservatives but didn't get a majority in parliament so that they can be held to account.

"I have more faith in Carney than in Poilievre" to deal with the US and Trump, he says, but he must act on social issues to flip his vote in a future election.

"Justin Trudeau had similar plans [to deal with the climate and housing], but he didn't do much". It was only when the NDP pushed that his government improved pharma and dental care, he says.

"I don't think I can move out till I'm 30 because housing is so unaffordable," the 20-year-old says, adding that he wants the Liberals to build more affordable homes for students.

Kalsi laments the severe defeat of the NDP, and says leader Jagmeet Singh made the right decision to step down.

"This whole election shows us why we need proportional representation," Kalsi continues. "The NDP got 6% of the vote, but only got around 1% of the seats."

Pete Hoekstra, the new US ambassador to Canada, has set out his vision for relations between the two countries in a video posted on X today.

"Coming from the state of Michigan, we know all about the positive trade relationship we have with Canada," he says.

Hoekstra calls to enhance the two countries' trade agreements in order to "combat threats from countries like China".

He says "we're trying to make north America a fentanyl-free zone" and adds he also wants to "make sure we control migration...so that our citizens can be safe".

"I'm committed to engaging with your politicians, business people and every day Canadians to build this relationship and make it stronger," he says.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney spoke with US President Donald Trump today after his election victory, according to the Canadian prime minister's office.

Trump congratulated Carney on the election, according to the statement, and the leaders agreed to meet in the future.

"The leaders agreed on the importance of Canada and the US working together – as independent, sovereign nations – for their mutual betterment," the statement reads.

"To that end, the leaders agreed to meet in person in the near future," it adds.

A news conference this morning with Bloc Quebecois leader Yves-Francois Blanchet suggested Carney may experience a short period of stability.

Blanchet urged a “truce” among parties while Canada negotiated trade with the US president, saying Canadians wanted stability in unstable times.

He said it wasn’t time for other parties to “threaten to overthrow the government anytime soon”.

Barring any “major crises” or clear “bad faith”, Blanchet said he doesn’t see any scenario “other than collaboration for a period of slightly over a year”.

But, he did have a warning for Carney and urged his government to avoid pressing Quebec on certain issues, including on secularism, language laws and immigration - noting that collaboration goes both ways.

Mark Carney's Liberals have failed to secure a majority government in Canada's general election, according to a projection from public broadcaster CBC.

Carney faces the pressing tasks of dealing with his US counterpart President Donald Trump as well as a range of domestic issues. This result will make navigating all that an even bigger challenge.

The Liberals will need to rely on other political parties to pass legislation through the House of Commons.

They also face possible defeat in any votes of confidence in the chamber.

It may be easier to find support in the House to pass legislation to help workers and industries affected by US tariffs - something all parties backed on the campaign trail.

The Liberals are most likely to find willing partners with the diminished left-wing New Democrats, who have in the past supported the Liberals, and the Bloc Québécois.

Votes are still being counted and we're still waiting for some projections from some ridings, but here's a look at the current state of play.

Remember, the CBC's projection of a Liberal minority government means they will have to get help from another party to form a government.

Carney's new government will be a Liberal minority, the CBC is now projecting.

As of now, 169 seats are projected to go to the Liberals and 142 projected to the Conservatives, NDP are projected to have seven seats, Bloc Québécois projected to have 22 and the Green Party projected to have one seat.

Stick with us and we'll bring you the latest.

The Liberals have picked up one more seat, bringing them three seats shy of a majority government.

They now hold 169 seats, out of 343 in the House of Commons, according to Elections Canada.

Conservatives hold 144 seats, the Bloc Québécois holds 22, the New Democrats Party has seven seats, and the Greens hold one.

PM Mark Carney may have been elected to stand up to US President Donald Trump - but south of the border, his victory has not ruffled feathers.

Trump has repeatedly said he would like to make Canada the "51st state".

While Canadians headed to the polls Monday, Trump was saying on social media they should vote for him, despite him obviously not being on the ballot.

"Elect the man who has the strength and wisdom to cut your taxes in half, increase your military power, for free, to the highest level in the World, have your Car, Steel, Aluminum, Lumber, Energy, and all other businesses, QUADRUPLE in size, WITH ZERO TARIFFS OR TAXES, if Canada becomes the cherished 51st State of the United States of America," he said.

On Tuesday, the White House commented on Carney's win, with deputy press secretary Anna Kelly telling me: "The election does not affect President Trump's plan to make Canada America's cherished 51st state."

Trump was also asked about trade talks with Canada, but declined to provide an update.

Canadians have sky-high expectations of this economist and central banker turned novice politician, who has led the Liberal party to this extraordinary political moment in Canadian history.

The party rose from being behind by double digits in the polls. Not all votes have been counted and, although it doesn't look like they'll have a majority government, they'll certainly have a strong showing in the houses of parliament.

Carney will have a huge agenda. He will not just be dealing with the threats coming from the south of the border, but also from provinces who have their own ideas about Canada's political future.

A man who is so used to running the ship as a banker, now has to do it as a prime minister. It's a whole new game for him.

Canadian PM Mark Carney has spent much of today receiving congratulations from world leaders, including Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky and the UK's Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

And with no need for a swearing-in ceremony, he's already been back behind his desk - we're hearing that he's spoken to French President Emmanuel Macron.

In a social media post, Macron says the pair shared an "excellent call".

"We reviewed joint projects between Canada and France," he says, as well as the "challenges" ahead of the G7's next summit in Canada this June.

Back in March, when Carney became interim prime minister following the resignation of Justin Trudeau, he made a statement by choosing Europe - not the US - as the destination for his first foreign trip.

Although one of his most pressing tasks is to deal with US President Donald Trump - who has targeted Canada with trade tariffs and even vowed to make the country the 51st state of America - Carney has also promised action on a range of domestic issues.

• Double home-building rates

In his victory speech in the early hours of Tuesday, Carney pledged to "build, baby, build" - an apparent nod to Trump's pledges on oil drilling. "It's time to build twice as many homes every year with an entirely new housing industry using Canadian technology, Canadian skilled workers, Canadian lumber," Carney told supporters.

• Cut tax to ease cost of living

The Liberals have proposed a slight tax cut for those in the lowest bracket, who are due to see their rate reduce from 15% to 14%. Carney's party has also vowed to scrap sales taxes on homes under C$1m ($720,000; £540,000) for first-time buyers.

• Build a national electricity grid

Carney has promised to build a national "east to west" electricity grid to reduce energy dependence on the US.

• Massive hike in defence spending

Carney has vowed to raise defence spending to 2% of Canada's GDP, which is the target for all countries in the Nato military alliance. Last year, it spent less than 1.4%.

• Boost domestic trade and car-making

Carney has pledged to find new ways to trade in light of the impediments placed on cross-border commerce by Trump's tariffs regime.

Some ridings - or districts - are still too close to call, according to projections from CBC, Canada's national broadcaster.

There are 28 ridings yet to be called - many of them because the margin comes down to just a few hundred votes.

The Liberals are just four ridings away from a majority. While their path is narrow, it's not impossible - in Kitchener Centre in Ontario, for example, the Tory who is leading the race is ahead by just under 400 votes. In Miramichi-Grand Lake in New Brunswick, the Liberals are behind by just over 200 votes.

But those razor-thin margins could work against them, too.

In Terra Nova-The Peninsulas in Newfoundland and Labrador, the Liberals are ahead by just 100 votes.

At the end of the day, we won't have the final results until every vote is counted.

Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet, who is the only main opposition leader to have kept his seat in the Canadian parliament, says yesterday's results show that "people make the decisions, not polls".

He says none of the parties are where they expected to be and that power "is in the hands of those who vote".

"We've got to respect that and never take anything for granted," he says during a post-election press conference.

Blanchet held onto his seat in the riding of Beloeil–Chambly, however Bloc Québécois is projected to have lost seats in parliament.

Asked if yesterday's results were due to the tariff threats from the US, Blanchet says: "It's at once the threat from the White House and the very clever use of the fear in the population by the Liberals".

Questioned further about tariffs, Blanchet says: "If we are patient enough we will prevail in that negotiation.

"The best way for us to achieve that is through an alliance," he says, adding: "If Canada wants to be strong, it also needs us."

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney says his country deserves "respect" from the US and stresses he will only allow a Canada-US trade and security partnership "on our terms".

In a world exclusive interview after his successful election night, the Liberal Party leader also tells me that Canada's integration into the US as its "51st state" is "never, ever going to happen".

Carney and Trump have locked heads over tariffs since the former Bank of England governor became interim prime minister in January, and he says he won't be visiting Washington until there is a "serious discussion to be had" about Canada's sovereignty.

Meanwhile, the PM adds that there is a "win-win possibility" for his country if he is able to build its trading relationships with the EU and UK as well as securing a deal with the US.

"We could expand the level of integration between our countries, like-minded countries." He tells me. "You think about defence partnerships, and those conversations have just just begun, so there's a lot that we can do."

Liberal MP Bruce Fanjoy pulled off one of the shocks of election night when he ousted Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre from his seat - but he says he "wasn't surprised" to win the riding for Carleton, Ontario.

Speaking to CBC, the country's national broadcaster, Fanjoy says he never intended to be a "giant killer", but simply wanted to provide an alternative to what he calls Poilievre's "divisive American style politics".

He also suggests the main issue on the ballot paper was "Donald Trump and tariffs", with Canadians looking for someone to address the "crisis" caused by the American administration.

Mark Carney's Liberals won Canada's federal election, riding a backlash of anti-Trump sentiment to form the next government.

It is a stunning political turnaround for a party who were widely considered dead and buried just a few months ago.

It's not yet clear if the party - which has been in power for almost a decade - will be able to secure a majority as results continue to roll in.

Either way, the prime minister faces major challenges, including divisions in the country laid bare by the campaign.

For now, though, here are five key takeaways from an election which saw the Conservative opposition make major gains but still lose:

1. Trump's threats became the defining issue
2. There was a stunning debut for Mark Carney, a political newcomer
3. The Conservatives made gains, but are still falling short of winning enough seats to lead the government
4. Divisions were laid bare - notably Carney's Liberals are largely shut out of Alberta and Saskatchewan - oil-rich and gas-rich prairie provinces where a sense of alienation from the centre of power in Ottawa has long festered
5. Smaller parties took a hit - especially the left-wing New Democrats, or NDP. Their leader Jagmeet Singh stepped down earlier
