As of 12:05 AM EDT: PC 76 seats, NDP 39, Liberal 7, Green 1 with 1 seat still up in the air.
If the new seat of Kiiwetinoong (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiiwetinoong) in northwest Ontario swings Liberal, they get official party status as Rob noted above. If any other party gets it, Liberals lose official party status and lose official funding support for research.
Kathleen Wynne has resigned as leader of the Liberals. She did retain her seat in Don Valley West, which is in the area northeast of downtown Toronto.
As for my riding of Niagara Centre (Welland, Port Colborne, Thorold and south Saint Catharines), it remains NDP with a new man representing us, Jeff Burch. The MPP for the area before the election, ex-Welland mayor Cindy Foster, decided not to run again.
