Pierre Poilievre will remain as leader of the Conservative Party, winning 87.4 per cent of the vote in a leadership review Friday night.

Mr. Poilievre had been expected to survive the review, mandated by his party’s constitution after he failed to defeat the Liberals in the April election.

The Conservative Party said 2,558 ballots were cast, representing 95 per cent of eligible delegates attending the Calgary event.

Mr. Poilievre’s victory cements his control over a party he has worked hard to build out since he won leadership in 2022.
