The Liberals now hold 174 of 343 seats, giving them the ability to pass legislation without relying on opposition support
The party is projected to win all three recent byelections, adding to gains made through five MPs who crossed the floor over the past several months. The Liberals now hold 174 of 343 seats, giving them the ability to pass legislation without relying on opposition support.
Carney said the government will still work with other parties and consider different perspectives in Parliament.
Opposition leader Pierre Poilievre criticized the path to a majority, saying it relied on defections rather than a general election mandate.
The byelections took place in two Toronto-area ridings and one in Quebec, with Liberal candidates winning all three.
The result marks a major turnaround for the Liberals following the resignation of Justin Trudeau and the party’s earlier minority government win.
