Liberal Leader Mark Carney will form Canada’s next government, though it remains unclear if he will lead a minority or majority parliament.

Then, former cabinet minister Sean Fraser said that he wouldn’t seek re-election, but changed his mind after a call from new Liberal Leader Mark Carney. He tells Galloway about the conversation that convinced him to change his mind, and Carney’s promise of a better work-life balance now that Fraser has retained his seat in Central Nova.

Plus, how are the winners and losers feeling as the dust begins to settle on a tight race with plenty of surprises? Galloway talks to re-elected Liberal Wayne Long, who was among the first in his party to call for former prime minister Justin Trudeau to step down; Andrew Lawton, author of Pierre Poilievre: A Political Life and the newly elected Conservative MP for Elgin-St. Thomas-London South; and Heather McPherson, the NDP’s re-elected MP for Edmonton Strathcona, who some observers are saying could be the NDP’s next leader. We also check in with voters and political commentators we met on The Current’s election road show to hear how they’re feeling about the results.

In their election night speeches, Liberal Leader Mark Carney and Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre both pledged to find ways to work with other parties to protect Canadians against the threats of tariffs and annexation from U.S. President Donald Trump.
