"A week ago, Conservatives lost a 40-year Winnipeg stronghold riding to NDP. Last night, Conservatives edged out Liberals in a 30-year Toronto riding.
Canada's media barely noticed the Conservative loss in Winnipeg, yet pundits cry that #TorontoStPauls is “referendum” on the Prime Minister.
No one riding represents Canada. Shifts happen in both parties."

@gemelliz the difference, though, is the detail. Manitoba is riding an NDP wave with Kinew’s new provincial government having just wiped out an unpopular Conservative government.Local dynamics matter. That is what handed the NDP the Winnipeg seat, and might hand them more seats in a General Election but in Ontario, the race will be mostly between Conservatives and Liberals and the election will be won or lost there. That’s why this is a disaster result.
