Voting to begin in federal byelections in Toronto, Vancouver and Chicoutimi ridings
On Monday, Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals secured a trio of byelections, including reclaiming a seat from the Conservatives in Quebec. Daniel Gobeil will represent the riding of Chicoutimi-Le Fjord, replacing Richard Martel who moved to the Senate. Braeden Caley will take up the MP position in North Vancouver-Capilano, British Columbia.
Tanveer Shahnawaz will become the new member of Parliament for Toronto's Beaches-East York riding. The Conservatives fared poorly, placing third behind the Bloc Québécois in Chicoutimi and the NDP in Toronto. The NDP's seat count fell to five in the House of Commons, but managed a second-place finish in Beaches-East York.
