Corrections

  • An earlier version of this story said former minister of international development Christian Paradis was seeking re-election for the Conservative Party. In fact, Paradis was not seeking re-election. An earlier version of this story also said Lisa Raitt won in Calgary Nose Hill, Alta. In fact, she won in Milton, Ont.
