Economic Observation Network According to the CCTV News client,Chief Station ReporterIt is reported that on April 13th local time, the Liberal Party of Canada won all three by elections that day, with 174 seats in parliament, more than half of the seats. The Liberal government led by Prime Minister Carney will become the majority government. This victory will also give Carney greater governing freedom, consolidate his leadership position over Canada, and advance his necessary legislative agenda.

In the three by elections of that day, two electoral districts in Ontario were the traditional strongholds of the Liberal Party, and winning the election was almost certain. Another electoral district located in Quebec was eventually taken over by the Liberal Party. On the evening of the election, Canadian Prime Minister Carney congratulated the three Liberal Party members of parliament on social media. The election results suggest that the Liberal Party may hold power until 2029, with the next election expected to be held in October 2029.

The Canadian House of Representatives has a total of 343 seats, and winning more than half of the seats, or 172 seats, will make it the majority government. In recent months, five opposition MPs have defected to the Liberal Party, leaving the party only one seat away from gaining a majority before the by election.

Previously, Carney had stated that winning a majority of seats would help him more effectively respond to the trade war initiated by US President Trump.

In the 45th federal House of Representatives election in 2025, the Liberal Party won 169 out of 343 seats in the House and formed a minority government. This is the fourth consecutive election victory for the party since 2015. Afterwards, due to the resignation of members of parliament and the transfer of several opposition party members to the ruling party camp, the Liberal Party's seats in the House of Representatives became 171. This means that as long as the ruling party wins any constituency in this by election, they can successfully secure the majority position in the House of Representatives.
