- Prime Minister Mark Carney's Liberals have secured a majority government with wins in all three byelections.
- The Liberals were just one seat shy of a majority after five opposition politicians broke ranks to join the ruling party in recent months.
- Candidates Doly Begum in Scarborough Southwest, Danielle Martin in University-Rosedale and Tatiana Auguste in Terrebonne pushed the Liberals past that threshold.
- The wins bring the Liberals up to 174 seats, putting them on more solid ground as they push their agenda through the House of Commons.
