The conservative chief adapted to Bitcoin, Pierre Hairy, will no longer be a member of the Parliament after losing his seat during an election which saw the Liberal Party of Mark Carney enough seats to form at least a minority government.
The data from the Canada Elections, reported by the CBC, shows that Hairyvre lost its seat of the Ottawa region against Brunce Fanjoy Liberal Monday evening after a 5 -week electoral cycle launched by Carney, the current Prime Minister last month.
Overall, the Liberal Party took around 162 seats at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time, which is enough to form a minority government.
It is less than the forecasts of recent polls, which provided that a liberal party led by Carney would reach the majority government territory – 172 seats – given the threats that US President Donald Trump has taken to the country’s sovereignty and the punitive prices that the White House directed north.
However, CBC News noted at midnight that the votes still arrived and that it is not yet clear if the liberals will win enough seats to form this majority government.
If the current results are part of the Westminster system inspired by the United Kingdom as part of which Canada operates, the Liberals would need the support of another opposition party, such as the Bloc Québécois with a separatist spirit, or the New Democrat Party from left to the left in the House of Commons.
A motion of non -confusion led by the conservatives, if it has the support of another party, would be sufficient to trigger another election – although it is far too early for this to be taken into account.
Unlike the United States, where the crypto played an important role in moving the needle on the Congress races victory, and put Trump back to the White House, it seemed to be a deaf case in Canada.
Although Carney and Hairy have discussed crypto in the past, the problem has not been raised for campaigns even if it was an important question for many conservative deputies.
On Polymarket, a contract asking bettors to predict the next Prime Minister of Canada has crossed the $ 100 million mark (in US dollars), and a dozen other questions related to the elections had almost $ 100 million in volume collectively.
