Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau acknowledges that there is still work to be done after his party loses a long-held seat in Quebec.
By a narrow margin of just 248 votes, Louis-Philippe Sauvé secured the LaSalle-Émard-Verdun seat.
The Liberal Party suffered another loss in Canada's election on Monday, with Bloc Québécois candidate Louis-Philippe Sauvé winning in LaSalle-Émard-Verdun against Justin Trudeau's personally endorsed candidate, Laura Palestini. The race was close, with Sauvé receiving 28 percent of the vote and beating the Liberal candidate by less than 250 votes, according to Elections Canada results.
"In a press conference in Ottawa on Tuesday, Trudeau stated, "Clearly, it would have been preferable to win, but there is still more work to be done.""
Trudeau emphasized the importance of ensuring that Canadians are aware of the choices they have in the upcoming election.
The Bloc Québécois, a party that claims to be the only one defending Quebec's interests, is seeking independence from Canada. In a press conference, Sauvé, the new Bloc Québécois MP, said that the night was a roller coaster and that he had many emotions. However, he added that he was now feeling good and grateful towards his neighborhood for choosing him as their MP. Prime Minister Trudeau is up for re-election on October 25, 2025. The office of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau did not respond to Planet Chronicle Digital's request for comment.
