Electoral Breakthroughs and Conservative Strategies

Elias Makos welcomes in Antonine Yaccarini, Political Analysts, PR Expert and former PQ and CAQ staffer, and Justine McIntyre, Strategic consultant and former city councillor.

• Mark Carney’s Liberals have 168 seats, just 4 shy of that majority number. They were boosted by major gains in Quebec that came largely at the Bloc Québécois’ expense
• The Conservatives obtained their highest share of the vote since 1988, but with the collapse of the NDP, don’t have a win to show for it
• NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh got crushed in his seat in Burnaby Central and announced he will step down once an interim leader is appointed
• Are we entering a period of a de facto two-party system?
• The Elections Canada website went down — on election day. Does the “Canada is broken” guy have a point?
