The Canada===Supreme Court of Canada annulled the result of the federal election in the Montreal-area riding of Terrebonne. Liberal Tatiana Auguste was initially declared the winner by one vote over Canada===Bloc Québécois candidate Nathalie Sinclair-Desgagné. The decision followed a hearing regarding a special ballot that was not counted due to an address error. Julius Grey, representing Nathalie Sinclair-Desgagné, argued for ensuring the correct representative in the House of Commons. This ruling overturned a Superior Court judge's earlier rejection of a new election, which had deemed the error as not affecting the integrity of the Canadian electoral system. Tatiana Auguste's legal team had warned against defining clerical errors as election irregularities.
