19 Monday Maps: Oh Canada!

Today is Election Day in Canada!
So of course my focus is going to be on maps related to my home country.
If you’re not Canadian, you may not have been following what’s going on, but this article by the BBC, provides a good summary.
In short, at the start of this year Pierre Poilievre’s opposition Conservatives had a 99% chance of winning the next election.
Then Trump happened.
And now the odds have shifted in such a way that Canada’s ruling Liberal party now have an 89% chance of winning a 4th term, although this time with Mark Carney rather than Justin Trudeau.
Also amusingly, Carney and Poilievre are running in adjoining ridings in my hometown of Ottawa.
Plus, Carney was also a resident of my current home of London while serving as the Governor of the Bank of England before, during and after Brexit.
By this time tomorrow, we’ll hopefully know the result but in the meantime here a few maps to keep you going.
