By-elections to the 45th Canadian Parliament are held to fill vacancies in the House of Commons of Canada between the 2025 federal election and the 46th federal election. The 45th Canadian Parliament has existed since 2025 with the membership of its House of Commons having been determined by the results of the Canadian federal election held on April 28, 2025. The Liberal Party of Canada has a minority government during this Parliament. The Conservative Party of Canada forms the Official Opposition.

A writ for a by-election must be dropped no sooner than 11 days and no later than 180 days after the chief electoral officer is officially notified of a vacancy via a warrant issued by the Speaker. Under the Canada Elections Act , the minimum length of a campaign is 36 days between dropping the writ and election day, but must not exceed 50 days and the by-election must occur on a Monday within that time-frame. [1] [2]

One by-election has been held during the 45th Parliament. It took place in the electoral district of:

Three by-elections are currently pending due to vacancies in the House of Commons:

A by-election is possible in the Toronto electoral district of Beaches—East York following Liberal MP Nate Erskine-Smith's announcement that he intends to contest the provincial Liberal nomination in Scarborough Southwest and seek a seat in the Ontario legislature. [8] [9] A by-election is also possible in Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie as NDP MP Alexandre Boulerice is seeking the Québec solidaire nomination in Gouin for the next Quebec provincial election, expected in October 2026.

August 18, 2025 by-election

Battle River—Crowfoot

A by-election was called in the federal riding of Battle River—Crowfoot, and was held on August 18, 2025, following the resignation of Conservative MP Damien Kurek. Kurek, who secured re-election with over 80% of the vote in the 2025 federal election on April 28, resigned his seat on June 17. This was done to allow Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre an opportunity to return to Parliament through a by-election after he was unseated in the 2025 Canadian federal election. [11] [12]

The writ for the by-election was drawn up on June 30, 2025 with the date of the vote set for August 18 in order to avoid a conflict with Alberta Heritage Day earlier in the month. [13]

Terrebonne

A by-election will be held in the federal riding of Terrebonne in Quebec, Canada, after the Supreme Court of Canada, on February 13, 2026, reversed a lower court ruling denying an appeal by a Bloc Québécois candidate, who lost the federal election in Terrebonne riding by a single vote, vacating the seat won by Liberal MP Tatiana Auguste and triggering a byelection. The annulment was due to a printing error by Elections Canada on a return envelope for mail-in ballots which resulted in an envelope containing a vote for the Bloc Québécois candidate being returned to sender after the election.
