Episode Synopsis

Canadian voters decide on another minority government and deliver Bizarro World results: Prime Minister Mark Carney claims a seat in Parliament with his first elected win, the Official Opposition Leader loses his Conservative seat of 21 years (so long, Stornoway!) and the NDP leader resigns after failing to hold onto his riding and official party status. If you're as confused as most people, our resident Parliamentary proceduralist has come to the rescue. Yarolsav unpacks what's next, what it sets in motion, and what to expect from the minority dynamics of the 45th Parliament.
