Published: 8/19/2025

Canada's Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre is projected to win a key Parliament seat in Alberta after losing his previous constituency in the last general election. Poilievre's victory in the Battle River-Crowfoot riding with 80.4% of the vote comes after facing a record 214 candidates, many linked to a protest group. With this win, Poilievre will return to the House of Commons, showcasing Conservative strength in Alberta ahead of a mandatory leadership review for him in January.
