We've arrived! It's the FINAL edition of the DAILY election edition of On the Ledge - your Ontario politics podcast.
Ontario has voted and given Doug Ford another strong majority mandate at Queen's Park.
But the discussion got side-tracked by the latest GONG SHOW performance from the Oval Office. The screaming match among Donald Trump, J.D. Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has the crew wondering how the sheer chaos sets the tone for the tariff and trade negotiations between Washington and Ottawa.
On the election results, each of the three major parties had wins and losses.
The Tories landed a third majority but end up with fewer seats than they had at dissolution.
The NDP won Official Opposition but their seat count dropped to 27.
And the Liberals won official party status but Liberal Leader Bonnie Crombie lost her election bid in Mississauga.
We're joined by John Tory and Tim Hudak, both former leaders of the Ontario PC Party, and Keith Leslie CHCH Queen's Park Commentator.
