Power and Politics will be back with extensive election coverage later today. But first, our colleagues at Front Burner have stayed up very late to bring you this analysis.

A whirlwind election campaign has ended with Mark Carney leading the Liberal Party to victory, coming back from disastrous polling numbers just months ago.
