Canadian Federal Election Results: Conservatives win minority government


the CanadaVisa Team - 22 July, 2015

Yesterday's Canadian federal election resulted in Canada's third consecutive minority government, re-electing Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party. Though the Conservatives did not clinch the enough seats to make up a majority government, their minority was strengthened to 143 seats, up from 127 in the 2006 election.

Prime Minister Harper has called on all other political parties to work together with the Conservative government to protect the economy and to continue to build a strong Canada.

Now that the Conservatives have secured their place as the ruling government, it is expected that the Immigration Minister Diane Finley will announce herplan about how the recent Canadian immigration amendments will be implemented, by the beginning of November.
