Congratulations Canada and Prime Minister Mark Carney on your new minority government. 🍁🇨🇦💪 #cdnpoli #elbowsup
The best part was that Poilievre was unseated. Not only was his party defeated; he was removed from power. Hopefully permanently.
O Canada! OUR home (on native land).
It's still too early to tell whether it will be a majority or minority. They count early votes last, which tend to lean heavily Liberal.
Voters in Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre's riding of Carleton deserve a happy shout-out for kicking him to the curb. 😂 Three months ago Poilievre smugly thought he was gonna be Prime Minister. Now his party lost and he lost his own seat in Parliament. What a great country! 🤣 #CanadaStrong
Bravo 👏

Hopefully Canada isn't as infected by overseas players as USA with with their taken over portions of media (focussed on the gullible and vulnerable) crashing economy, and military sales, emphasized by apparently actually blocking transfer obsolete Abrams tanks to Ukraine.... What side is the USA on?
It's so obvious there were non Canadians influencing the election. The Canadian new government should tighten social media regulation etc to stamp out misinformation from them.
Great news! Congratulations to a free and strong Canada!
Canada: New leadership, fresh possibilities. U.S.: Stuck in a never-ending reality show, where d plot keeps getting worse, & we’re all just waiting for d “season finale.” Congrats, Canada! you’ve got progress. We’re just trying to survive the next episode.
So well said 👏👏
So relieved
Great congratulations, you guys! Now, if you guys wouldn't mind cheering on us in Australia. Coincidentally, we have a federal election soon, too, on 3rd May. Cheer on PM Anthony Albanese of the Labor party, over the Temu Trump wannabe in Peter Dutton of the conservative party.
Canada is hoping you have the same kind of democratic success that we've had tonight! We'll lend you a couple of beavers, a moose and Canada's secret weapon of mass destruction, the Canada goose. Hopefully they can help Aussies speak fluent Albanese, rather than Peanut Butter of the Conservatives!
😆👏👊🏻 Thanks 😁
Elbows Up, Australia!!! 🇨🇦🇦🇺🐨🦫
Note what we did there with Poilievre in his own riding! (Notice the way the Liberal campaigned in that riding.) The Trump like leader lost his own seat! Note how many seats were lost to the right b/c the left split the vote! Tag me some info & I/we can help out in the AUS elections!
Great to hear, well done @public4ph.bsky.social What type of info would you need ? The conservative leader here is Peter Dutton, and he is the Federal Member for the Dickson electorate in the state of Queensland. They're pretty rusted on up there, though.
Happy to hear of good results!
Thanks kindly ☺️ 🙏 The conservative leader also lost his own seat here 😀👍🏼
Brilliant!
Do I have this straight? -Albanese is ALP and Dutton is coalition leader so Liberal.
Yes, unfortunately, the conservative party named themselves the liberals (ridiculous, isn't it ). Shows they can't even be straight about their own party name, let alone anything else.
What do you think is the attraction of the 50+ to Trump? bsky.app/profile/josh...
Well, times have changed a lot recently, socially, haven't they. And I think some people can't cope with it. They want old times back. Plus, they might have more wealth and believe the spin that coalition taxes less.
Thank you. I will boost AUS labour party posts that I see.
Come on Australia, no Dutton
It’s your turn now, let’s show the world how intelligent the Commonwealth is
My fingers are crossed and I hope you follow Canada's sanity. 🦘🦫❤️
👊
To be honest, that election was way too close. The country is divided. Idiots voted for PP in big numbers from coast to coast. I suspect the higher education rates explains why things swung to the centre left.
There was a lot of vote splitting, too. Not all idiots.😅🍁
Welll .. I’m not happy - conservatives fared too well in Ontario - Which stopped Mark from securing a majority.. Now we need to see who Carney will have to dance with .. It’s good but not as great as we had hoped!
Ontario sucks. I say this as somebody who lives in Ontario. I think I'll go live at my summer place in Quebec almost all year. Quebecers have proved their patriotism is actually stronger than English Canada, which is ironic given their history of wanting to separate. They saved our asses.
I'd vote for KRISTI NOAMS dead dog over dictator donny any day AOC Bernie Tim anybluebody BLUE VOTE is the decider Gee WE need to get OUR priorities Together as group Ask every day Where were the Doge boys and Starlink 11/05/24 and WTF were they doing It is the next election we need to protect now.
Get a Bright Blue Straitjacket on POOR OLD donny trumpt He loves BLUE so much He's so jealous spews about Biden Kamala Obama needs to get retribution for his own BS EVEN after The bigly miserable asshole won he's just plain nuts 25/47 Defund and Deport un-American Elon Congress Senate 202-224-3121
"new minority" Sweet deal. Arbitrations between criminal organizations.
Still could be a majority...
Just a reminder to all Americans to once again thank Canada for Operation Yellow Ribbon on 9/11 and for taking care of many of the air travelers who were impacted by the quarantine of US airspace on that terrible day. The US couldn't have asked for a better neighbor
The American shit show was a lesson for voters and thankfully we didn’t go down the same path last night. 🍁
Isn't it just great to be reporting good news for a change? Canada answered the call. Democracy lives. Vive le Canada 🇨🇦 ❤️
They haven't called it as minority yet.
LET'S GOOOOO MARK ‼️
Minority?
Probably. 172 for a majority. Not quite there. Majority could still happen but unlikely. There are seats other parties are only leading in. The previous Trudeau govt was a minority.
Oh, got it.
Yeah, Canada!!
I don't think we know that's its a minority government. But thank goodness it's Liberal.
Wannabe-Trump Poilievre couldn't even win his own seat! Love it! 🤩 ottawacitizen.com/news/pierre-...
He needs to resign.
Yup!
Grownups in charge again!
Thank you for your great tweets on #Cdnpoli supporting the pro-democracy candidate Mark Carney vs the far-right authoritarian # MapleMAGA rage monkey Pierre Poilievre during the election.
winning
Still hoping for those last few seats for a majority
Majority still possible
🙏🙏🙏 🩷🇨🇦🩷
👏
🇨🇦❤️
We’re just fucking getting started. The rest of the world, if you’re scared or tired or already beaten down, get behind us Canadians as we lust to fight bullies 💪🏻 especially Fat, Stupid Orange ones ! 🇨🇦 👊🏻 💥
Congratulations #Canada for not electing an Asshole like we did in the #USA 🇨🇦👍👏❤️
Does majority and minority mean the same thing in Canada as it does in the US? It's my first Canadian election to follow. lol
From my understanding, in order for a party to have majority they need 172 seats or more. If a party has the most seats but didn't get to 172, it's a minority government. Meaning the Liberals have to cooperate with the other parties.
It’s callled the parliamentary system. Carney will need to form a coalition to get 50.1%. I believe France, England and other parliaments are currently there. It’s how Bibi is staying in power in Israel, giving the extreme right what they want to stay in power (eg Ben Ghivir). Good? Bad?
Oh wow! Thank you!
With a minority, they could be toppled at any time if the party holding the balance of power decides to not support them. It also makes changes more difficult because of this.
We've had minority governments before. This one means a lot. But we're Canadian, we'll get through. That's what I have to believe.
Yes, it’s disappointing, but still much better than a con win.
Thank you for your help and support throughout this all. I'm absolutely overjoyed. 🥰😍🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
#Never51 #StrongandFree #Democracy
Let’s go canada! I am so happy carney won! (I cover politics and social issues, focusing on fighting fascism and raising awareness about key injustices. Please follow me if interested!)
It is still not decided. There are mail in ballots that could affect whether it is a minority or majority. Stay tuned.
If they pull a majority out of the pile I’m gonna fall over. That would really be something. I wasn’t expecting anything different from Alberta (Florida) and Saskatchewan (Alabama) but pretty disappointed in BC right now.
Not all of us in those horrid blue zones in BC voted that way
I know buddy. I’m sorry.
So many Albertans have retired in BC, it has tilted their results to the right
Too early to call minority vs majority.
Canada..fuck yeah!!!
They understood the assignment!!💪🏼 🙌🏼 👏🏼
Phew 😅 Canada wins ❤️🇨🇦❤️
We haven't projected if it'll be a minority or majority.
A majority would have been better, but we'll take the W considering the Libs were just about done about a few months ago.
It’s not yet decided if it will be a minority gov’t
I think Carney is a criminal mastermind and Trump is one of his fawning minions. Trump's threats to annex Canada were all part of the dastardly plot to make Carney the leader of the free-but-soon-enslaved world!
Oh thank fuck. Even if it's a minority, I'm glad it's not Conservative. Now we just have to make sure the conservatives don't fuck every one over with their bullshit. Don't let the cons hold back the progress that Canada wants to have.
Thank you for all your posts showing Canadians not only what was at stake, but who Poilievre truly is and what he stands for. 👍😊
Trump scared them straight
Not yet..that hasn't been called!!
Xi to Trump: America will be a great Chinese province. We can hammer out the deal soon. I can assure you that your new title ‘Governor Trump’ will be well received by world community. Your neighbor Canada is already on board w/this. See you soon Gov Trump. Yes, we can work w/a white peasant.
😂
🙏🍀 a very good sign 🥳
Yes!!! Watched it live! 🇺🇸❤️🇨🇦
Congrats, fellow Canadians!!!! I celebrate your victory and wish you all the best of the best. 👏🙏💜
Minority/Majority hasn't been called yet, it's still too early to tell
🤭
Thank goodness, sigh of relief. I just placed my early vote here in Australia. This Saturday is a big one for us too! 🗳️🙏🏽
Sure is, hopefully our people are as sensible as the Canadians have been! 🤞
Good luck in your election, I hope that it is as positive an outcome as ours is.
Many might be angry right now, but Mr. Carney deserves an opportunity to demonstrate that he will lead Canada against the Trump threats and strengthen Canada's relationships at home and with trade with the rest of the world. We are stronger together 🇨🇦. Let's heal together. Elbows up! ❤️
The whole 51st state bit is really getting old. Love you, Canada. This is a little like going to your best friend’s wedding 99 days after you got divorced. #USDemocracy
Canada did us proud 💪🇨🇦🍁🤗
Big thank you to the US President for getting this over the line.
🇨🇦 🔥 🇨🇦
And PP may lose his seat :)
Is Poilievre claiming it was rigged yet?
Canada election results and how Brazil addressing insurrections are peers I’d like to see US emulate. That’s the right peer pressure.
Strike the White House to remove the Nazi
WRECK US CANADA. WERE WAITING.
Fat Orange Felon will be 😭
Amazing News, Congratulations Mark Carney and Democracy works 🇺🇦 🇨🇦 🔥💪😊💥👏
Minority hasn’t been called yet by all médias. So waiting.
Congrats Canada from below!!!
To bad we live in a country many racist.
Hopefully a majority
Celebrating with a Canadian classic 🥳🥳🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦
Oh, looks good. What is it? Chips with sate sauce?
poutine?(spelling might be of, i'm Scottish living in Scotland( the real one))
It’s the traditional Canadian POUTINE , fries, cheese & gravy ❤️
That stuff is the BEST. Went to Uni in Canada. Love Canada 🇨🇦
Agree. Total comfort & study food. Canadian grandparents introduced it to me at a young age and always gives me guilty joy
Isn't called a minority yet... majority still possible
CTV projected a minority
Minority called by networks, but we'll take the W since a few months ago, it was going to be a conservative gov't.
Depending on the final results they could team up with NPD and Greens for a majority, we'll see.
Why would the NDP Team up with you again after they did last time and it killed them?
Wdym "it killed them"? They're dead because their campaign was bad... they can sit in the corner and do nothing or they can help get a majority.
Lmao that's not how it works. That's literally a minority government
Thank you. I believe the Libs WILL gain a majority. The networks always want to show how clever they are.
I'm watching CBC, they haven't called minority or majority yet.
CTV called it a while back.
Interesting! I wonder what criteria they use vs what CBC uses.
CBC say still too soon to call minority or majority. We are seven seats away!
Agreed 👍 I called it, at least we have a Liberal goverment. bsky.app/profile/phib...
CTV has called a minority
Fuck him!
Thank you! Thank you CANADA for voting!!
Now, please invade the US and help those of us who are intelligent overthrow Trump!
Congratulations, Prime Minister Mark Carney and Canadians! Now, let's hope Australia sends Dutton back to the outback.
it's a majority government but thank you
Is it official??? I hope so. At my last look it was only 168. 🤞🏼🇨🇦🍁🇨🇦🤞🏼
Yes 👏. Congratulations Canadian Great People 🇨🇦 🍁. European People stand by you in continuing fight for democracy 🇪🇺
Thank you.
Still might get the majority! Special thanks need to be conveyed to our NDP and Bloc de Québécois friends for lending us their votes. Without them, this would have never happened.
❤️ 🇨🇦
Frosting on the cake bsky.app/profile/cana...
This still hasn't been called yet. 85 out of 266 polls reporting & Fanjoy is leading with 51.8%. PP's only at 44.8%.
Still a lot of Counting in that riding but it would be amazing if pp lost his riding.
That would be a cherry on the top for Maple MAGA tears rolling.
This would be glorious!!
It's looking like he is in real trouble.
I love it! He does not deserve his seat
Now PP is giving a speech but he is saying: "I like to continue to fight for you who voted and stop Libs to create a majority government" 🤔 🙄 They are booing Carney for becoming PM 😡 Then he said: "calm down, we need to work with Carney." So contradictory and full of BS. So MAGA-like.
I'm glad my riding in BC flipped to Liberal against the Trump wannabe. PP with Smith can now go to Felon Trump and cry on his ugly shoulders.
This would be the icing on the cake. They haven't announced it so not sure if all the numbers are in.
Check the top right of the image bud
Numbers are way past that amount now, Fanjoy still leading, but they still have yet confirmed it.
Update bsky.app/profile/kyle...
This makes me so very happy, let's hope it holds true 🇨🇦💪
It very well could be a majority... it's not all even counted yet. In fact, the BC polls just closed 45 mins ago.
You need to congratulate President Trump, the great Unifier of the World! bsky.app/profile/gopj...
Western still needs to report in. It's down to a Majority or Minority government. The rides not over. Keep the elbows up, coffee going, and best wishes coming our way!
OH CANADA!! ❤️🇨🇦❤️🇨🇦❤️ 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Elbows up💪
Next is Australia this Saturday. In Australia, the two major parties aline to the two US parties. The far, far right conservative party is aligned to trump and the christian nationalists in the US. Australia needs the left to win again. The alternative is a road to hell!
Good luck, Australia! If we could do it, you can do it too!
Elbows Up Australia
Thank God. Good job Canada!
Finally some of the worlds sanity is restored.

💯 great job Canada. You did good! congratulations and thank you from the US!
Ballots are still being counted. If all goes well, then by morning, Carney could possibly have a majority .
