IDid this riding change?
Yes — it shrank. All of today's Edmonton Manning comes from the old Edmonton Manning, but it is only 96% of that riding. The rest went elsewhere.

The 2021 column is Elections Canada's official transposition of the 2021 result onto these 2023 boundaries. ± is the change in each party's share. It is not "swing": with four or more competitive parties there is no single pair to swing between.
IIIHow close was it, really

Flip the seatHypothetical
It would have taken 4,422 voters switching from Conservative to Liberal — 8.9% of the 49,807 valid votes, 8.9 points — to change the result. No ballot was cast this way; this only moves votes between the top two.

An association, not a cause. Voters who cast ballots before election day differed from those who turned out on the day. It does not say why. There is no poll-level turnout figure on this page: the elector count on a polling division includes people who voted in advance and were counted elsewhere.
