The next Canadian federal election is scheduled to take place on Monday, April 28, 2025. This election date was set after the Governor General dissolved Parliament on the advice of Prime Minister Mark Carney, calling for the election to elect members to the 45th Canadian Parliament. While federal elections are generally held on the third Monday in October in the fourth calendar year following the previous election, an earlier election was called for April 28, 2025. This election campaign will be the shortest permissible by law, lasting a minimum of 37 days and a maximum of 51 days. Key issues for the campaign include economic concerns and relations with the United States.
