The 2025 Federal Election ended with Conservative incumbent Rob Morrison securing a third term as MP for Columbia-Kootenay-Southern Rockies.

Morrison, who was first elected as MP in 2019, will go on to represent the riding for the Conservatives in Parliament.

“I will continue to be your strong voice in Ottawa, fighting for the interests of Columbia Kootenay Southern Rockies families, businesses, and communities,” said Morrison.

“With my experience on the National Security and Intelligence Committee and previous roles as Conservative Shadow Minister for Public Safety, I bring valuable perspective to representing our region.”

Despite being a member of the official opposition party, Morrison says he will continue to support the people of Columbia-Kootenay-Southern Rockies.

“The number one priority will be affordability, so we’re talking about getting people to work and building up the economy and GDP,” said Morrison.

“Let’s start approving projects like pipelines, mining in the Elk Valley and expansions for the smelter in Trail so they can produce more and we can hire more people. The more money we make from people working and supporting the economy really helps us pay off that debt.”

Morrison thanked his team for their support through the election.

“It was a short election period and I had a great team that gave it 100 per cent day and night and the results really show it,” said Morrison.

You can see the local election breakdown of election night below:

  • Rob Morrison – Conservative Party
    • 35,478 votes – 50.6 per cent of vote share.
  • Reggie Goldsbury – Liberal Party
    •  19,623 votes – 28.0 per cent of vote share.
  • Kallee Lins – NDP
    • 12,581 votes – 18.0 per cent of vote share.
  • Steven Maffioli – Green Party
    • 1,044 votes – 1.5 per cent of vote share.
  • James Wiedrick – Independent
    • 842 votes – 1.2 per cent of vote share.
  • Laurie Baird – PPC
    • 501 votes – 0.7 per cent of vote share.

*Note: These results are not final and will change when all 310 polling stations finish their count, which could take a few days.
