Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre is projected to lose his seat in the Ottawa-area riding to Liberal challenger Bruce Fanjoy. With most polls reporting, Fanjoy secured approximately 50.6% of the vote compared to Poilievre's 46.1%.
Despite the projected loss, Poilievre stated his intention to remain as party leader, expressing his commitment to continue fighting for his constituents.
Several factors influenced the election, including a significant turnout, a protest against the first-past-the-post electoral system which increased ballot length, and a significant Conservative Party effort to maintain his seat.
Jagmeet Singh, NDP leader, conceded his riding and resigned as party leader.
