Razor close?

Why because it’s a minority government?

You know, a minority government is closer to actual democracy than a majority one. This just forces everyone to work together.

The PC needed a majority to win. It was not close.

It was way closer than it should have been. Over 41% of a highly engaged electorate at best saw no deal breakers in Poilievre's platform. That's got to be unsettling to anyone with any form of vulnerability or marginalized position. Nearly half of Canadians are ready to see you as an optional inconvenience under (unrelated, no less) pressured circumstances.

The battle for this nation's soul is far from concluded.
