Canada’s opposition Conservative Party voted to hand a fresh endorsement to its leader Pierre Poilievre nine months after a shock election which saw him narrowly lose to Mark Carney’s Liberal Party.

The landslide vote cements Poilievre’s position as the prime minister’s primary domestic critic and may help him move on from doubts after two of his lawmakers defected to Carney’s party at the end of last year.
