Tories strip five Ontario ridings of bellwether status, while 29 seats remain

Just under one in 10 ridings have elected MPs from the governing party since at least 2011.

Liberal MPs, top row from left, Karina Gould, Terry Duguid, and Chris Bittle continued their riding's historic bellwether status, while Conservatives, bottom from left, Connie Cody, Sandra Cobena, and Roman Baber flipped seats that have long stuck with the governing party.
