Poilievre faces uncertain future after losing his own seat and failing to depose the Liberals [Video]

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre delivered mixed results in Monday’s election — boosting his party’s vote share to a generational high with breakthroughs among new voting blocs, while at the same time failing to unseat Mark Carney and the Liberals from government and losing his own seat.

Only months ago, Poilievre was poised to lead the Conservatives to a historic majority government, with polls projecting one of the most lopsided seat counts in 30 years.

In the end, former prime minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation and U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war scrambled the electoral equation and Poilievre couldn’t deliver on his promise of change.

With thousands of advance and special ballots still left to count — which have skewed Liberal to this point — Carney is less than a handful of seats away from a majority government.
