Ontario's Progressive Conservative party was projected to win provincial election Thursday evening, allowing them to form government for a second term in Canada's most populous province.
The Progressive Conservatives, led by Doug Ford, were headed to form a majority government, the Canadian Broadcasting Corp (CBC) said, after opinion polls consistently predicted a victory for the right-leaning party.
The win for the Ford government comes as the debt-laden province's health system is under strain after two years of pandemic, while hot inflation has added worries about high housing prices and the cost of living.
