1am (EST) and 1 of the 3 major party leaders has lost his seat (Singh). Bruce Fanjoy (LIB) has a 2500 vote lead over Poilievre in Carleton with 68% of the votes counted, so it’s looking fairly likely he’ll lose too.
I wonder if there has ever been an election where this many parties have changed leaders in such a short span of time. First Trudeau stepping down, then the NDP and Cons both having their leaders lose their seats. The only party leaders who survived the election and kept their seats are Elizabeth May and Yves-François Blanchet.
We needed this badly. It was clear that a few months ago we had no leader that Canadians were happy with.
Bruce Fanjoy is just a likeable guy too. The best kind to upset starchy pants.
With a name like that he’d have to be.
