It got lost in the shuffle a bit but the Tory sweep of Windsor ridings continues trend of global working class voters shifting ever more to the right

Did this particular riding swing right though? If it was a hold by 4 votes my guess is it moved left from 2021 but Canada's multi-party system makes swings less clear.

No, it had been held by the Liberals. And the other Windsor riding the Conservatives won had been held by the NDP for more than two decades.

Went from a 12 vote Liberal lead to a 12 vote Conservative win. Assuning that 1 vote win Quebec holds up, Liberals end up with 169 seats.
