Elections Canada said the count would be slow, but as of 10:55 p.m. ET, we have more than 70 per cent of polls reporting.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Begum is now speaking in front of her supporters. She was briefly joined on stage by Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree, who introduced her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Begum, smiling, thanked her supporters and the community for her win. &#8220;I am so proud of each and every single one of you,&#8221; she said, &#8220;and what we&#8217;ve accomplished together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Tonight we celebrate a new beginning.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Begum went on, after a brief pause, to talk about her late husband.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;To my dearest Rizuan \u2026 this victory belongs to you.&#8221;Queen&#8217;s&nbsp;<em>We Will Rock You<\/em>&nbsp;just blasted over the speakers here at Liberal HQ in Scarborough Southwest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheers drowned out the music as the results gave the Liberals a victory here in Scarborough Southwest, with chants of &#8220;Doly, Doly, Doly,&#8221; filling the banquet hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite having less leverage in the House of Commons, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says he will forge ahead in opposition \u2014 and criticized the Liberals for how they went about gaining their majority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;The Carney Liberals did not win a majority government through a general election or today&#8217;s byelections. Instead, it was won through backroom deals with politicians who betrayed the people who voted for them,&#8221; Poilievre wrote in a social media post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Liberals expect Canadians to give up, get complacent and go away, so Carney can have total power without any accountability. That will not happen. Our country and its people are worth fighting for.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although some of his former MPs helped Carney gain this majority via floor-crossing, Poilievre says he intends to stay on as leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I will continue to lead that fight every day and in every way in Parliament, across the country and in the next election, when Canadians will reclaim the country we know and love.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MP-elect Danielle Martin promised supporters who gathered Monday night from the riding of University-Rosedale that Liberals will be bold with their new majority mandate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As of tonight, Mark Carney and our entire incredible Liberal team have earned an even more powerful mandate to continue building a better Canada,&#8221; she said to cheers from the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This is not a mandate to be quiet. It is not a mandate to take our time. It is a mandate to get to work on housing, on affordability, on health care and climate change and infrastructure, on the future of our economy and the public services that are more important to this country than ever.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although CBC News projected that the Liberals will now form a majority, it doesn&#8217;t mean Carney will walk into the House of Commons tomorrow with the most seats on his side of the aisle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the ballots are tallied, Elections Canada will need to verify the results \u2014 essentially double-checking the numbers to make sure everything adds up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After that, the returning officer will need to send back the election writ \u2014 a.k.a., officially notify Elections Canada HQ of the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And even then, it&#8217;s not official until Elections Canada lets the House know the results and they are posted in the Canada Gazette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that being said, it could take a few weeks before the new MPs are sworn in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wins in University-Rosedale, Scarborough Southwest bring Carney government to 173 seats CBC News projects Liberal candidate Danielle Martin will win the byelection in the federal riding of University\u2014Rosedale.
