Poilievre LOSES Carleton Seat, Liberal Fanjoy Wins With 50% Votes | Time For A Leadership Change?

Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party, has lost his seat in Carleton to Liberal candidate Bruce Fanjoy, marking the end of his personal political career that began in 2004. Despite the Conservatives' strong performance nationally and their gain of 20 new seats, Poilievre's loss in Carleton is a major blow. Poilievre acknowledged the party's significant progress, including its highest vote share since 1988, while promising to stay on as leader. The race was close, with a record turnout for advance polling in Carleton. #PierrePoilievre #BruceFanjoy #Carleton #CanadianPolitics #ConservativeParty #LiberalParty #ElectionResults #PoliticalCareer #PoilievreLoss #ConservativeSetback #Election2025 #PartyLeader #PoliticalRace #OttawaPolitics #ElectionNight #CanadaVotes #CarletonRiding #PoliticalBlow #RecordTurnout #Polls #CanadianElection #PoliticalSetback #PoilievreVsFanjoy #ConservativeGain #OttawaElection #LiberalVictory #VoteShare #CanadianLeaders #PoliticalDrama #ConservativeLeader #ElectionDebate #CanadaVotes2025 #PoliticalShift ~GR.125~HT.408~
