NDP candidate Craig Sauvé came in third place.It was one of the closest three-way contests in recent memory that saw the frontrunners switch positions throughout the count, according to <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/federal-byelection-montreal-winnipeg-1.7321730">CBC</a>.It's also Trudeau's party's second consecutive by-election defeat in less than three months, a result that will likely pile pressure on the Prime Minister to step down.Trudeau already faced calls from his party to step down after losing Toronto-St. Paul — a safe seat in midtown Toronto that Liberals had <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/toronto-byelection-eric-grenier-tory-win-1.7245852">held</a> since 1993 — to the Conservatives in a byelection in June, per <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://montreal.ctvnews.ca/trudeau-loses-another-liberal-stronghold-in-bloc-quebecois-byelection-victory-1.7040759">CTV News</a>.For the past year, the Liberal Party has <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://338canada.com/polls.htm">polled</a> well behind the Conservative Party at the federal level, now standing at 25% against 43% for the Conservatives.An Ipsos poll conducted between September 5 and 9, 2024, <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.ipsos.com/en-ca/approval-trudeaus-performance-just-33-canadians-call-parliament-focus-cost-living">put</a> his approval rating at 33%. Two-thirds of Canadians disapproved of his leadership, citing disappointment with the cost of living and housing crisis.His Conservative rival, Pierre Poilievre, meanwhile, was the favorite pick for prime minister at 45% against 26% for Trudeau.Last Friday, Trudeau told Montreal radio station <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/im-not-going-anywhere-trudeau-weighs-in-on-economy/id1621131734?i=1000669476652&amp;l=ru">CJAD 800</a> that he would not resign if his party lost the LaSalle-Émard-Verdun election and vowed to stay on as party leader until the next election in October 2025.Before the election results came out, longtime Liberal supporter and strategist Andrew Perez said another defeat would be "yet another nail in Justin Trudeau's coffin.""If Trudeau's Liberals can't hold this safe seat, it will spell even bigger trouble for the party's prospects in Quebec and across Canada in a critical election year," he said in an <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/andrewaperez/status/1835847272950595625">X post</a> on Tuesday."It's going to be really hard for them to get around the narrative that the government is basically done," Lori Turnbull, a Canadian political analyst and professor at Dalhousie University, told <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.politico.com/news/2024/09/17/trudeau-pressure-liberals-canada-election-00179472">Politico</a>.Whether Trudeau's government will stay in power until the next federal election remains unclear.Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has pledged to put forward a no-confidence motion against Trudeau's government "at the earliest possible opportunity" when Parliament reconvenes in an effort to trigger a federal election, per <a target="_blank" class="" href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-non-confidence-vote-1.7319948">CBC</a>.However, Poilievre would require the backing of the New Democratic Party (NDP) and the Bloc Québécois to trigger an election — and it's unclear whether or not either party will join the motion, per <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/what-has-to-happen-to-trigger-early-election-1.7321843">CBC</a>.

" And, of course, he was shocked. After all, he saw burned and completely destroyed not military facilities, but the homes of Irpin residents, who until recently enjoyed life and had their own plans for the future."

New Delhi, The latest diplomatic row between India and Canada is not going to impact the ongoing bilateral military engagement and the matter has to be resolved at the political level, Canada's Deputy Army Chief Major General Peter <keyword id="6372795" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="scott" source="Orion">Scott</keyword> said on Tuesday. Scott is leading a Canadian delegation at the <keyword id="1551039" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="indo-pacific" source="Orion">Indo-Pacific</keyword> Army Chiefs' Conference (IPACC) here that is being attended by military delegations from over 30 countries. "To the best of my knowledge at this time, that is not going to have an impact on us. We leave the matter at hand to the political level to try and resolve," he told PTI. "We are happy to be here and we do not see the issue clouding matters at this point at all," Major General Scott said. The ties between India and Canada came under severe strain following Canadian Prime Minister <keyword id="1740494" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="justin-trudeau" source="Orion">Justin Trudeau</keyword>'s allegations of a "potential" involvement of Indian agents in the killing of Khalistani separatist <keyword id="7575364" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="hardeep-singh-nijjar" source="Orion">Hardeep Singh Nijjar</keyword> in June. India has rejected the allegations as "absurd" and "motivated" and expelled a senior Canadian diplomat in a tit-for-tat move to Ottawa's expulsion of an Indian official over the case. "This is an issue between both our countries at a political level. And certainly our Prime Minister...he rose at the House of Commons and made a statement requesting India's cooperation on the independent investigation that is currently ongoing at this time," the Canadian Army official said. "Between both of our armies, this is not affecting us. I spoke to your commander of the Army (Army Chief Gen Manoj Pande) last night. We both agreed that this is a political issue and has no interference on our relationship," he said. "As two armies we look for opportunities among other 30 nations that are currently participating in this conference to find areas where we can cooperate, train together, conduct exercises and operations so that we all can contribute to ensuring peace, stability within the region," Major General Scott said. "The way we see right now is that we will continue to cooperate, discuss, and enjoy great forums like this where we can exchange ideas and find solutions to the difficulties facing a lot of the Indo-Pacific nations," he said. The Indian Army is hosting the two-day conclave of Indo-Pacific army chiefs to evolve a common strategy to ensure peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region. In his opening address at the conference, Chief of Army Staff Gen Pande said India's outlook for the Indo-Pacific emphasises respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity of all nations.

He's currently at the head of a minority in the House of Commons, meaning he has to rely on support from other parties to pass laws. He called an election two years early, which some say was a bid to win a majority government.Opposition leaders have <a href="https://apnews.com/article/canada-health-elections-campaigns-coronavirus-pandemic-b5ba42315917324f9ce6cf8ded6c0e2d">criticized</a> Trudeau's decision, citing concerns about holding an election during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Housing affordability has become a key part of Canada's upcoming national election on September 20, as the COVID-19 pandemic drove up property prices in the country. Housing prices peaked in March this year, with an average home costing $716,000 Canadian ($568,000) - a 31.6% increase year over year, according to the<a href="https://www.crea.ca/news/record-home-sales-in-march-2021-new-supply-increases/"> Canadian Real Estate Association</a> (CREA).
