Canada welcomes Mark Carney as its new Prime Minister, following Trudeau's departure.
Here's a fresh, rewritten version of the article following the guidelines provided:
Stepping up to the plate, Mark Carney has assumed the prime ministerial position in Canada, taking over from Justin Trudeau at a time when the nation is grappling with questions about its sovereignty amid tensions with Donald Trump and a trade war with its largest trading partner, the United States.
The financial guru, previously serving as the central banker and never gracing Canadian public office, is now ready to address the myriad challenges facing the country, including Trump's hefty tariffs, and steer the Liberal Party through the elections scheduled later this year.
On Friday, Carney was sworn in, stepping in following Trudeau's resignation earlier in the day after a near-decade in power.
Trudeau announced his departure in January when polls indicated the Liberal Party was likely to face defeat in a forthcoming election. However, the party's prospects have since brightened thanks to growing Canadian disdain towards Trump and his policies.
In a heartfelt farewell message on Friday, Trudeau expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Canada - for placing faith in me, for pushing me, and for allowing me the honor to serve the greatest country, and the finest people, on earth."
