OTTAWA — Right-leaning parties west of Ontario have been left with just a handful of urban seats after October’s provincial elections, but pundits say this won’t necessarily slow down Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre’s momentum in major cities, so long as he stays focused on the issues affecting urbanites.

“My sense, from people I talk to, is that the Conservatives are still in pretty good shape here,” said Matt Spoke, a Toronto-based real estate investor and tech entrepreneur.
