Four byelections have returned seats back to the Liberals and Conservatives in strongholds many observers expected to remain status quo.

The federal Conservatives' Branden Leslie cruised to victory in the southern Manitoba riding of Portage-Lisgar over People's Party of Canada Leader Maxime Bernier. Leslie captured nearly 65 per cent of the vote. Bernier, whose fledgling party had its best showing yet in the riding during the 2021 federal election, came up short in his effort to regain a seat in the House of Commons, getting only 17.2 per cent of votes.

Anna Gainey, a former Liberal party president and former policy adviser to cabinet ministers, nabbed 50.8 per cent of the vote to keep Notre-Dame-de-Grâce-Westmount red, following the resignation of former cabinet minister Marc Garneau.
