Overview

• Liberal candidate Tatiana Auguste was declared the winner in Terrebonne, Quebec, by a single vote after a judicial recount completed on May 10.
• A mail-in ballot from a Bloc Québécois voter was returned undeliverable due to a postal code error on the Elections Canada-provided envelope.
• Elections Canada is investigating the issue and gathering facts, with the possibility of a legal challenge or byelection if the ballot is deemed valid and ties the race.
• The Terrebonne result is critical for the Liberal Party, which currently holds 170 seats and needs 172 for a majority government.
• Three additional recounts in other close ridings are still pending, which could further influence the Liberals' path to securing a majority in Parliament.
