Liberals win the Canadian elections, but without reaching the absolute majority

Date:

The predictions and threats of US President Donald Trump have ignited a wave of patriotism that has increased support to Liberal Mark Carney. If the extrapolations are confirmed, the liberals would obtain 164 seats and the conservatives 149.

The liberal candidate and acting Prime Minister, Mark Carney, has won the elections of Canada Only a month and a half after his victory in the primaries of his party. The former governor of the banks of Canada and England in this way will lead the next government of the North -American country, although it seems to do this minority.

Shortly after midnight, more than three hours after the schools were closed in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec – where the result is always decided because of the accumulation of population and seats – some more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more 11 million votes. At that time, the projections gave the liberal party 163 seats – The absolute majority is in 172 – for 149 From conservatives.

When the parliament dissolved in March, the liberal party ruled in a minority with 152 delegates. The opposition was formed by the Conservative Party (120), the Quebense block (33), the new Democratic Party (24), Independent (3) and the Green Party (2).

In his first statements after he had known the results, Carney promised to rule “with All competitions And all areas and civil society ‘, in a message that was designed to strengthen national unity. He also repeated the idea that US President Donald Trump “wants to break us, but that will never happen,” he announced under the applause from his supporters who waited for hours to celebrate the elections.

For his part, the leader of the Canada Conservative Party, Pierre PoilievreHe has recognized the victory of his liberal rival, which will rule as a minority, and has assured that he will continue at the head of the party in an opposition that will demand responsibility for the government.

Minority matches

Relatively the Quebequés blockTo which the projections give 23 seats, 10 less than those in the previous parliament, but hardly saved from the debacle that some polls had expected.

The new one went much worse Democratic (NPD, Social -Democrat), which of the 25 seats he had, can only happen seven after he has lost all his loan in Vancouver, where he was stronger.

With such results, no party has real reasons to celebrate: the liberals, because they will not win that the polls promised him almost without exception; The conservatives, because they could not avoid the fourth consecutive victory of the liberals; And minority parties, because they lose support in both cases.
