Poilievre says he lost Ottawa riding for being 'honest' about plan to cut public sector jobs | CBC News Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre says he lost his riding of Carleton in the federal election due to an "aggressive" campaign by public sector unions after he was honest about wanting to cut ...

Wherein Pierre Poilievre hoists the middle finger to the good people of Ottawa Carleton. He finally publicly admits that he deliberately put their interests last – yet still expected them to re-elect him as their MP. Entitlement run rampant.

Far More Women than Men Voted for Carney. Why? | The Tyee What that gender divide means for Canada’s political future.

Women voters leaned Liberal while an increasing number of men leaned Conservative.

It reflects social, cultural and economic realignments rooted in identity politics and diverging values. Marshia Akbar writes. #CdnElxn2025

Social justice and economic justice go hand in hand, but New Democrats have done a poor job of articulating that and communicating it to its natural base of voters: ordinary working people. #CdnElxn2025 #cdnpoli

The New Democrats and the Working-Class Vote | The Tyee After a disastrous election, can the NDP reclaim labour support?

How did the NDP fall out of favour with so many workers it purports to represent? #CdnElxn2025

One vote! ONE!

A Path to Fewer Indigenous People in Prisons | The Tyee ‘We’re ready to go with a plan,’ says Kory Wilson of the BC First Nations Justice Council. A Tyee Q&A.

Canada’s first Indigenous Justice Strategy barely made a ripple amid the Liberal leadership race.

But as the #CdnElxn2025 dust settles, BC First Nations Justice Council chair Kory Wilson says advocates are ready with the road map toward a more equitable justice system. #cdnpoli

Will the Conservatives Choose Rage Farming or Collaboration? | The Tyee The party has two possible paths with very different outcomes for Canadian politics.

Under Poilievre’s leadership, the Conservatives increased its seat count and captured a greater share of the popular vote than in any election since Brian Mulroney.

And yet Poilievre is not prime minister. Worse still for him, he lost his own seat in Carleton. @jaredwesley.ca writes. #CdnElxn2025

Please Advise! Are We Too Mean to Party Leaders? | The Tyee Why must Poilievre flee to Alberta? And didn’t Singh deserve better?

When the only candidate in your rear-view mirror is the People’s Party dude, the bronze medal is not much consolation.

Conservatives Will Blow It by Keeping Poilievre | The Tyee Voters in his own riding rejected his style of politics. And Canada will again.

In a few days’ time the Conservatives will hold its first caucus meeting since losing the #CdnElxn2025.

What to expect? Big time spin from someone who refuses to resign in the face of defeat. Michael Harris writes.

I Ran for the NDP and Lost. We Need to Change | The Tyee After a disastrous election, progressives must reinvent the party. Here are six ideas.

“Even in the face of devastating results for our party, the atmosphere remained oddly upbeat.”

Canada’s Conservatives Are Down, but Far from Out | The Tyee Trump dealt Poilievre’s hopes a blow, but his party has a lot to celebrate.

Canada’s Liberals have, once again, risen from the dead.

As for the Conservative Party of Canada, rather than constituting a total failure, their standing is better regarded as an inability to fully close the deal.

Please Advise! How Did Poilievre Fall Out of His Seat? | The Tyee Ottawa’s MP fed snacks to convoy honkers while bashing Ottawa. Thanks, said voters.

@steveburgess53.bsky.social: It was a weird election overall.

The New Democrats were crushed, yet if current seat totals hold, they might still claim the balance of power. The NDP could still snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Kind of like Pierre Poilievre, but in reverse.

One Man’s March to Beat Poilievre in His Own Riding | The Tyee Aspiring Liberal candidate Bruce Fanjoy has knocked on 5,000 doors. ‘I see hope in faces.’

A Disappointing Election Night for Most Political Players | The Tyee Disaster for the NDP, Poilievre loses his seat and Danielle Smith’s role.

@djclimenhaga.bsky.social: Poilievre, who thought for months he was a deadbolt cinch to be PM, led his party to yet another defeat. Bloc Québécois doesn’t quite hold the balance of power in the next Parliament. And the NDP under Jagmeet Singh? Not just disappointment — disaster!

#CdnElxn2025

The “let’s bring it home” douche not only failed to bring it home, he also got evicted from his home riding.

#CdnElxn2025

There are more than a dozen seats that could yet flip, but the result will likely be a minority government.

And what about Bruce Fanjoy! The guy worked for two years to do the impossible. He deserves all the credit in the world for his remarkable achievement. (2/2)

#cdnpoli #CdnElxn2025

Many of us voted country before party, and that's the only reason we don’t have a Pierre Poilievre govt-in-waiting this morning. Mark Carney and the Liberals will do well to remember that as they start on what will be a complicated and challenging path to govern. (1/2)

Our MAGAt had that up here too. Tricky business. Maybe swap out for his wife or Mom? Iron out the crease in his jeans? Send a Hail Mary ‘wink, wink’ admonishment to Trump? Failed here, TBH. #cdnpoli #auspol #cdnelxn2025

To all the Elections Canada people working through the night on this:

Thank you.

Jagmeet Singh announcing he is stepping down as NDP leader. Mad respect for this guy and his love for Canada.

Tweet from Pierre Poilievre April 28, 2025: “President Trump, stay out of our election. The only people who will decide the future of Canada are Canadians at the ballot box. Canada will always be proud, sovereign and independent and we will NEVER be the 51st state. I Today Canadians can vote for change so we can strengthen…”

I am SCREAMING. It’s fine to lean into MAGA until it no longer helps your case? 🙄

Big thank you & merci to everyone working the polls in Canada today! It's a long day, and I imagine it's been busy. There was a steady stream of people in and out when we were at our polling station just now - but we were done in under 10 minutes.

Now to wait "patiently..."
