Making up ground

Congrats to the NDP's Paul Ferreira on his upset victory over Laura Albanese in York South-Weston. While a by-election naturally makes for a different dynamic than a general election, it's still remarkable that the Ontario NDP has now managed to take two seats where the Lib incumbents had won roughly 60% of the popular vote (and margins of victory over 40%) in the last general election - leading one to wonder just what Lib seats can possibly be considered safe going into the next general election this fall.
