The election closely reflected the pattern that had been set out in the 1993 election. The Liberals swept Ontario, a divided Bloc managed a reduced majority in Quebec, and much of the west was won by Reform, particularly its Alberta base, enabling the Reform to overtake the Bloc as the largest opposition party. The major change was that the New Democratic Party (NDP) and the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada all but wiped out the Liberals in the Maritimes. Maritime voters, upset over cuts to employment insurance and other programs, defeated two cabinet ministers. David Dingwall, Minister of Public Works from Nova Scotia, and Doug Young, Minister of National Defence from New Brunswick, both lost to NDP candidates in a major blow to the Liberals. Chretien's decision to hold an early election (one of the shorter mandates when a majority government called an election) did not help, while Manitoba was still recovering from a devestating Red River Flood earlier in the year. The 1993 Canadian federal election, which took place on October 25th, 1993, was one of the most eventful in Canadian history. ...

Commentators on election night even predicting a minority government, although the Liberals were secure in forming the next administration due to a divided opposition. Because of losses in the Maritimes, the Liberal majority was reduced considerably from the 1993 total. Mostly because of these wins in the Maritimes, Jean Charest's Tories and Alexa McDonough's NDP both regained official party status in the House of Commons.
