Federal Election 2025

Ted Falk is running again for the Conservative seat in Provencher. Not only is Falk personally looking to win a 5th consecutive election, but he is also hoping for a return to power, rather than serving in opposition as he has been doing for the last decade. 

Airdrie-Cochrane NDP candidate Sarah Zagoda wants to bring fresh leadership and integrity to federal politics.

The longtime Airdrie resident, mother of three, has 20 years of experience in the technology sector and works as a school technologist at Airdrie’s largest high school.

She ran for the NDP against Conservative Blake Richards in the 2021 election. She has since served as CEO of the federal Banff-Airdrie NDP and is president of the provincial Airdrie-East NDP.

Sean Secord, the Liberal candidate for the Airdrie-Cochrane riding, is eager to engage with residents to understand their concerns and share his passion for serving the community.

A two-year Cochrane resident, the 52-year-old brings deep-rooted family connections to Airdrie and other Alberta communities, positioning him to effectively represent local interests.​

He advocates for a comprehensive review and modernization of Canada's healthcare system and the Canada Health Act.

With a federal election on the horizon, the agriculture sector is hoping to see some commitments from the federal parties as they campaign for seats in parliament.

Val Marie's Alex McPhee is bringing a small town perspective to the NDP as their Swift Current--Grasslands--Kindersley candidate in the federal election.

The current slate of candidates in the Foothills Riding includes John Bruinsma, the Liberal candidate who got his foot in the door fairly early, having been acclaimed on Feb. 20.

Bruinsma was born and raised in Alberta, having lived much of his adult life in the Edmonton area, pursuing an education in accounting and engineering technology, and raising a family before entering a career in oil and gas.

A member of the Manitoba legislature has resigned his seat to run in the federal election. 

Progressive Conservative Grant Jackson is leaving his Spruce Woods seat in western Manitoba to run for the federal Conservatives in Brandon-Souris.

The federal seat has been held since 2013 by Conservative Larry Maguire, who announced Sunday he is not seeking re-election due to health concerns.

Jackson has represented Spruce Woods since 2023, and previously worked as an assistant to Maguire.

The federal Liberals are pushing further ahead of the Conservatives in voter support, and almost one in two Canadians surveyed said they think the Liberals will win the election, a new poll suggests.

The survey, conducted by Leger for The Canadian Press, reports that 44 per cent of decided voters surveyed would vote Liberal in the upcoming election, ahead of the Conservatives at 38 per cent.

The poll surveyed 1,599 Canadians between March 21 and March 23, which includes the first day of the election, and the two days leading into it.

A federal election is coming up in just over one month, and the liberal candidate for Provencher is getting ready.

"It's going to be busy because this is a short campaign and so there's a lot to do, but I'm I'm looking forward to it. I think this is a very important election, so I wanted to be part of it," says Trevor Kirczenow.

There are several big issues that make this such a critical election, he says.
