Part 6/8:
Sectorial Breakdown
Traditionally, the Liberals excel in urban areas, specifically in cities like Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver, while Conservatives tend to dominate rural regions, particularly in Alberta and Saskatchewan. The election results saw the Bloc Québécois, a Quebec nationalist party, perform well, securing 23 seats, while the NDP faced a significant decline, winning only seven seats compared to 25 in the previous election.
This collapse for the NDP signals a troubling trend, exacerbated by Carney’s election lead which siphoned off left-leaning votes that might otherwise have bolstered the NDP.
