I was just thinking that BQ still have their leader on, but naur, they’re almost wholly regionalistic that it’s not really worth talking about in terms of a national leadership reset. It would be straight up disastrous for BQ as a whole if Blanchet wasn’t even elected as MP.

That said, PP has a chance at staying on as leader; he may have squandered the last few months leading up to the election, but from the various polls we’ve seen, the gap was closing between the LPC and the CPC, and PP has the historic vote share to pressure the party’s leadership into letting him stay

Jagmeet is unfortunate but his time was far over. You could argue that the NDP was sacrificed for the LPC (f you FPTP), but in many provinces, their seatsand even vote share were somewhat evenly split between the LPC and the CPC, so it’s not purely a consequence of strategic voting; the CPC definitely ate some of their original pie. Not only is this bad news for the NDP (cause it means they’ve really disappointed their supporters), but that some of these disappointments may have led to voters swinging to the other side. We’ll have to wait until we see voter turnout data to give us more hints about what else we should takeaway from this election.

The LPC, well, Carney’s already a new leader, so the reset’s already done there, but the other people aren’t likely to change, at least there hasn’t been an indication of that. They have their work cut out for them this time, and it will be a really tough 4 years ahead, or shorter. If they disappoint, and couldn’t solve at least a few of the crises we’re in right now, they might really get fully wiped out. I hope they actually are aware of that fact, especially given how dangerously close the CPC is to them (vote share, not seats, though they’re arguably pretty close in seats too).

I really hope the LPC actually recognizes that they’re deep in the water right now, and that there are people in the LPC with visions that’ll prioritize the longevity of the Canadian center and left by implementing PR, in case they actually fail to deliver and get wiped off the national stage.
