The dust has settled on Canada's 46th federal election, with Mark Carney's Liberals capturing a razor-thin minority over Pierre Poilievre's Conservatives.
It was a stunning turnaround, considering just how dire the Liberal Party's prospects seemed to be in the months before Justin Trudeau stepped down as leader.
Village Media's team of political reporters — Jessica Smith Cross of The Trillium, along with Katherine DeClerq and Palak Mangat of Parliament Today — were in Ottawa Monday night with both party leaders as the results came in.
On tonight's 'Closer Look,' they break down the winners, the losers, and what to expect in the days and weeks to come.
