Trudeau secures third term in 'bittersweet' victory as he remains minority leader and tells voters 'You're sending us back to work to get Canada through this pandemic'
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Trudeau's Liberals projected to win more seats than any other party with 158 - adding just one seat on 2019

  • PM hailed result as triumph and judgment on his party's work against Covid, but he remains minority leader

  • 'You are sending us back to work with a clear mandate to get Canada through this pandemic,' Trudeau said

  • Trudeau's victory lap comes after a grueling campaign that saw a new photo of the PM in blackface emerge

  • His nearest rivals, the Conservatives, were predicted to lose two seats with 119 - dropping two seats

  • Left-wing New Democrats secured 25 seats (+1), Bloc Québécois won 34 (+2), and Greens won two seats (-1)

  • Trudeau entered the election leading a stable minority that was not under threat of being toppled

  • His failure to consolidate power will be seen by many as undermining his efforts to unite the country

  • 'Trudeau lost his gamble ... this is a bittersweet victory,' said Prof. Daniel Béland of McGill University

#1 So there is nobody ideologically close to the conservatives to form a coalition with? How sad for Canada.
