Here’s who crypto bettors see winning – DL News
- Canada is heading to the polls on April 28.
- The election will pit a CBDC supporter against a Bitcoin backer.
- Donald Trump is likely to be the decisive issue in the vote.
The race is on.
Freshly minted Canadian prime minister and crypto sceptic Mark Carney has called for a snap election that will see him face off against Conservative Party leader and long-time Bitcoin backer Pierre Poilievre.
Poilievre’s election win looked certain just two months ago. But Donald Trump’s threats to annex Canada and slap new tariffs on the country have helped swing the odds in Carney’s favour, according to prediction market bets and polls.
The key deciding factor? Who can present himself as Canada’s best defender against Trump’s trade war.
