In a surprising turn of events, Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre lost his seat in the recent Canadian general election while his party saw an increase in both seat count and voter share. The Liberal Party, led by Mark Carney, retained control of parliament with the successful bid of candidate Bruce Fanjoy for the Carleton district—once Poilievre's stronghold. Despite conceding defeat and promising to remain party leader, his absence from the House of Commons raises serious concerns about his political future and ability to lead. The dynamics within the Conservative Party are increasingly fraught with tension over his leadership.
Poilievre conceded the election, yet pledged to stay on as Conservative leader, acknowledging the party's increase in seats while recognizing the setback of losing his own.
Without a seat in the House of Commons, Poilievre cannot serve as leader of the official opposition, leading to uncertainty about his leadership future.
