| Prime Minister Mark Carney, Canada~Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Australia |
Just a couple months ago, polls in Canada and Australia showed the extreme likelihood that both countries would elect a conservative as Prime Minister.
Back in January, Anthony Albanese of Australia's Labor Party, was said to have had a 3% chance of being elected and the chances of Mark Carney of the Liberal Party in Canada were not much better.
Yet, both men won quite easily against candidates considered similar to Trump and many pundits are attributing their decisive wins to what they've called the "Donald Trump affect." Voters in the two countries got to observe Trump in action for two months before voting and said: "We sure as Hell don't want THAT in our country."
