- Following the close of voting, the New Democratic Party will announce the new leader on Sunday morning at 11 a.m. ET, concluding the leadership selection process.
- Inheriting a political organization needing to rebuild after last year's worst-ever election result, the incoming New Democratic Party leader will immediately face shaping future policy priorities and election strategy.
