A fast-paced, hard-fought federal election is over — and the Liberals mounted a remarkable comeback to win a fourth mandate, this time with Mark Carney as prime minister. But, his to-do list shows there’s no time to rest. Host Catherine Cullen breaks down Carney’s packed schedule and what it tells us about Canada’s future.

Then, a senior writer for CBC’s parliamentary bureau answers audience questions about this third minority government. Plus, party strategists discuss the thin margins of victory, the stunning losses and the new makeup of the House of Commons that will once again require parties to work together to get anything done.

Finally, incoming Liberal, Conservative and NDP MPs each discuss what comes next for their respective caucuses — from governing priorities, to leadership questions, to figuring out what’s next for the Canada-U.S. relationship.

This episode features the voices of:

• Aaron Wherry, senior writer for CBC’s parliamentary bureau
• Marci Surkes, Liberal strategist
• Kate Harrison, Conservative strategist
• George Soule, NDP strategist
• Rebecca Alty, Liberal MP-elect for Northwest Territories
• Gérard Deltell, Conservative MP-elect for Louis-Saint-Laurent—Akiawenhrahk
• Gord Johns, NDP MP-elect for Courtenay—Alberni

This is it: House Party has been building up to the Canadian federal election for weeks, and now it’s actually happened! On just an hour or two of sleep, Catherine Cullen, Jason Markusoff and Daniel Thibeault react to the news that it’ll be a Liberal minority government in the House, and share what they think are the biggest surprises of the day.
