Trudeau under pressure after Liberals lose another safe seat
Bloc Québécois candidate Louis-Philippe Sauvé, a former political staffer, upset the race in LaSalle—Émard—Verdun, snatching a seat long-held by the Liberals, including former Prime Minister Paul Martin before the riding was redistricted. He won with up 28 percent of the vote with the Liberals a close second with 27.2 percent.
