The Conservatives were first at four of the eight general elections from 2004 to 2025, the Liberals at four; it changed hands once. In 2025 the Liberals took 59.7% of the vote here, 25.9 points above their average of 33.8% at the seven general elections from 2004 to 2021.

On today's boundaries the Conservatives were first here in 2004 (36.7%), 2006 (37.5%), 2008 (45.9%) and 2011 (46.4%) and the Liberals in 2015 (54.5%), 2019 (34.9%), 2021 (32.9%) and 2025 (59.7%), each with the share of the valid votes shown.

A stronghold is a party first at every general election since 2004, by an average of 20 points or more over the next party; held, first at every one; usually, first at all but one. By-elections are not counted. By this rule 160 of the 343 ridings have no degree. The results before 2021 are carried onto today's boundaries by where the riding's 2025 electors lived: our estimate, from the older boundaries of Taylor, Lucas, Kirby and Hewitt and the results in Sevi's "Who Runs?". 2021 is Elections Canada's transposition, and 2025 the official result. In 2006 the carried top two are within two points, so which party was first is less certain.

Before 2025
  • 2021 Liberal · Patrick Weiler, by 2,438 votes (3.9 pts)
  • 2019 Liberal · Patrick Weiler, by 5,314 votes (8.2 pts)
  • 2015 Liberal · Pam Goldsmith-Jones, by 18,889 votes (28.4 pts)
