Tories: 34.4 (121 seats)
PPCs: 1.6 (0 seats)

Bloc: 7.7% (32 seats)

So 55.5% for the left/center left
36% for the right/center right
and 7.7% for the Bloc, whatever they identify as these days - labour left/immigration right/etc.
The Liberals aren't left. They are centre. If you are comparing centre-left vs. centre-right, the Liberals fall in both camps.
