Carney secures Liberal majority after special election wins
BBC ^ | Apr 13 | Jessica Murphy, Canada digital editor, Reporting fromToronto

Posted on 04/13/2026 9:34:39 PM PDT by RandFan

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberal Party has secured a slim majority in the House of Commons, solidifying its hold on power after being projected by Canadian media to win at least two seats in by-elections on Monday.

The election gains come a year after Carney took office, and follow five defections by opposition members of parliament to the Liberals.

Liberals would now hold 173 of the 343 seats in the House, giving Carney more latitude with his political agenda. Results in a third special election are still unclear.

His party will have the ability to pass legislation without relying on support from opposition benches and he could stave off a federal election until 2029.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Carney is a globalist plant. Ex-central banker. Somehow he's now the PM of Canada and who gets to count the votes? Suddenly has a majority and zero support as he's a technocrat?

When are Canadian voters going to grow up?

Canada is beyond help. We should encourage their secession movements and be done with the rest.

“When are Canadian voters going to grow up?”


For Ontario, Quebec, the Maritimes and Vancouver ?

Never !

Carney is literally the most Prime Minister since WW2, based on support from those areas.

So I asked AI.

Since 2015, Canada has received roughly 10–12 million total newcomers (including both permanent and temporary immigrants), and today its population is about 40 million people.

After Trudeau won in 2015, they were able to import their voters. Now they’ll never lose an election again.

They are doomed.
Canada will not recover from this.

If Alberta leaves, I am told by a number of Canadians that Saskatchewan will pretty much automatically go next and Manitoba is likely to be right behind them. British Columbia is up in the air but seems slightly more likely that they will also leave than that they will stay, but that has to be seen. I am told that if AB, SK and MB all go, it makes it far more likely.

The hilarious part is that the Carney Canadians seem to think that they will be able to bring the oil patch into line by shutting off the pipelines to the rest of Canada. “When they can’t sell their oil, they’ll collapse real quick! Where will they sell when they can’t pass it through the rest of Canada?” Yes, they really are that stupid to think that the Albertans can’t get oil across the US border, that Montana will somehow say ‘no’.

Canada is never going to grow up.

They're quite full of themselves and a whole lot of something else.

What's.... remarkable on one hand and frankly infuriating on the other is they're one half of the population blaming us for all their woes and the TDS is off the charts and the other half is begging us to save them.

It's extraordinary.

From what I understand oil from Alberta already goes to the US.

Here are the "voting" choices in Scarborough South West. (which was 90+ percent White in the early 1980s)

Ottawa and the Carney admin are retards, detached from reality (typical of lefties). I’ve watched some clips from parliament over the last couple weeks and the Albertans et al make energy & regulation points of order / arguments and the liberals simply respond with unrelated talking points. I know I’m just an ignorant American but I didn’t think that is how parliament was supposed to function. Again though, lefties do their thing and only abide by procedure or precedent when it aligns with their desire.

Not possible, they are all Democrats.

The new "Member of Parliament" from Terrebonne, Quebec.

Terrebonne is just north of Montreal, and would have been ~100% White forty years ago.

(please Annex us ! I'll happily take Territory Status)

After disastrous Trudeau the conservatives in Canada had a 20 point lead which evaporated when Trump started joking about Canada becoming the 51's state.
