Global News has declared that Michelle Rempel Garner has won Calgary Nose Hill for a third term.
On Monday evening, Rempel said she is looking at the election results from the perspective of her constituents.
“I think people across Canada want stability and they want people to come together who are in positions of leadership to find a way out of the pandemic, as well as to chart a path through recovery,” Rempel told Global News.
“It is time for parliament to get back to work on these very important issues.”
Rempel called on Justin Trudeau to redouble efforts on pandemic recovery, adding that’s “not a hallmark of this prime minister.”
“(Canadians) want to see unity and, rather than divisive language or further acrimony, what we need to see is actual leadership so Canadians can see a clear path forward.”
The riding of Calgary Nose Hill is located in the northern region of Calgary.
