2025 Canadian General Election

CBC Decision Desk has called a Liberal government. Mark Carney will remain Prime Minister and has won his seat in Nepean, but whether he will lead a minority or majority government is yet to be decided. The Conservatives also have picked up a decent amount of seats. The Bloc Quebecois has held onto most of it's seats. The NDP however has lost most of its seats.
 
Ctv has called a minority for the Liberals now...

Bloq looks to hold the balance, are we going to another election sooner rather than later if we don't get movement on affairs?

Does pierre hang onto his job? Numbers way up yet came up short.

How will Carney manage with this given limited political experience... Hmmm

Interesting result that probably doesn't really satisfy anyone, though I think the Liberals will definitely take it considering they were a dead party walking just a couple of months ago with Trudeau's zombified corpse stubbornly clinging on. For them this is a huge moral victory even though they didn't get the majority.

Jagmeet is toast. I'd be surprised if he doesn't announce his resignation by tomorrow at the latest. It's a disaster for the NDP.

PP might be done too, but it's harder to say. He delivered them a strong popular vote, but it still resulted in a loss that was unthinkable just weeks ago. They had this in the bag. It'll be very hard for him to stay on as leader under those circumstances.
 
Pierre Poilievre and Jagmeet Singh trailing in their ridings so far. Liberals flipped Toronto St Pauls and Peterborough, but lost 13 ridings in the GTA.
 
I would argue bitter sweet. PP and Singh are resoundingly getting it handed to them in their own ridings, lol. But the Cons playing that fear and loathing card that got Trump elected did far better, making this country ever more divisive and bitter then I, my family and my friends will ever be comfortable with...

...that said, Trump did not get his Trojan horse via PP. At least I can sleep a little more soundly on that.

Meanwhile, Carney will likely have to play the uncomfortable game of making it good with the BQ to run this country. And hopefully, none with the MagaTories... >.<

Edit: The fat lady hasn't sung on this night yet, so there are something I've said here that may change. Hopefully for the better...we shall see.

Both Liberal and Cons played the fear card to some degree...each side will say the other side has made this country more divisive. :rolleyes:

In Toronto, I think Karpoche wins by a nose in Taiaiako'n-Parkdale-High Park (I go back and forth), while the Conservatives come close in York Centre and Eglinton-Lawrence, but strike out in the 416.

Welp, I was waaay off in Parkdale. The NDP performed terribly in Toronto, with a degree of strategic voting for the Liberals that is unprecedented.

Which side had the higher moral ground in their claims is what should be looked at when playing that bothside'ism game. And for what that's worth.

There's a chance the NDP may be able to hold the balance of power. That might be more stable.

It's so tight right now, that for NDP+Green+Liberal to hit 172 (169 right now ... okay, 170 now) that it will be interesting who is selected as Speaker.

Will the Conservatives ally with the BQ to bring down the government, and put seatless PP as PM?
 
It’s still to early to call some tight races in the GTHA and Southwestern Ontario but here’s what find difficult:

York Centre elects Roman Baber, an absolute nut job that Doug Ford wanted nothing to do with.

York Region went really blue.

I was really hoping Matthew Green would hold on in Hamilton Centre. He’s exactly the kind of guy the NDP needs to rebuild.

And some Southwestern Ontario ridings, the Liberal rise and the NDP collapse saw a few solid NDP MPs fall to Conservatives.

Not great.

I’m also bitter how the Liberals just dumped Evan Solomon here in Toronto Centre and got an easy win.
