I'm not the most comfortable having the Liberals back but it's far more comforting having Carney PM than Pollievre.

Pollievre may win his riding in the end but I think the writing is on the wall for Jugmeet Singh, 3rd place in voting.

Will be interesting to see where the popular vote sits when all is said and done.

Liberals being shut out in Calgary would be somewhat depressing. Was looking like they'd get at least 2, maybe 3...

As someone who literally just moved to Calgary Confederation today, I just wanted to thank everyone who voted Liberal (or NDP / Green / CFP etc). I did my part in Calgary McKnight but not looking optimistic.

Sucks that it's another minority. Was hoping the winner would at least have a majority so they could deal with what's going on without getting dragged down. Unfortunately the Liberals couldn't get enough seats off the BQ and people still clung to the NDP in B.C.

There are something like 91 candidates on the same ballot. Going to take some time.

The more serious problem for the Libs is their underperformance in GTA.

CBC needs to hire John King to run the smart board. This David Cochrane guy is NG.

I want to see if it's even possible to get a majority.

I mean the last time Calgary gave Liberals a chance they basically shot themselves in the foot, lets not pretend it's totally unwarranted.
