The Liberal Party of Canada achieved a decisive victory in three federal byelections, securing additional seats in the House of Commons and expanding their majority government. In the riding of Chicoutimi-Le Fjord, the Conservatives suffered a major defeat, finishing in third place after holding the seat since 2018. The results come amid growing tensions between Canada and the United States over a prolonged trade dispute involving sectoral tariffs. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government has faced criticism for its handling of the trade negotiations, which collapsed in August 2026. The Liberal candidates, including Tanveer Shahnawaz in Toronto and Daniel Gobeil in Quebec, emphasized economic stability and protection of key industries like dairy, aluminum, and forestry. Meanwhile, the Bloc Québécois leader criticized the Conservative Party for being ineffective in the region.
