Stormont-Dundas-Glengarry stayed Conservative in the 2025 federal election, returning Eric Duncan to Ottawa for a third term. Duncan won April 28 with 37,441 votes, or 56.4 per cent of ballots cast, up from his 55 per cent share in 2021.
Nationally, Conservatives again failed to form government, and Duncan acknowledged the night was “not what” the party hoped for. Still, he said their “ideas were solid” and he was “proud of the campaign we ran.”
Mark Carney’s Liberals formed a minority government after the 2025 federal election, while Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre lost his seat in Carleton. Locally, Liberal candidate Sarah Good outperformed expectations in SDG, drawing 26,318 votes (about 39.7 per cent)-the party’s strongest local showing in decades. Duncan’s campaign manager Adrian Bugelli said the campaign drew a “record number” of first-time voters who told the team they had never voted before.
Local leaders like South Stormont Mayor Bryan McGillis and Cornwall Mayor Justin Towndale praised Duncan’s work.
Towndale said the result reflected “the trust people have in Eric’s leadership,” while predicting Parliament may not last four years. This was the first election held since the federal riding’s boundaries were changed. North Glengarry was shifted from Glengarry-Prescott-Russell to the newly created Stormont-Dundas-Glengarry.
