December 12, 2022 by-election
Mississauga—Lakeshore
The riding of Mississauga—Lakeshore was vacated on May 27, 2022 following the resignation of Liberal MP Sven Spengemann to accept a position with the United Nations.[2] Spengemann had represented the riding since 2015, when he defeated Conservative incumbent Stella Ambler.
Running for the Liberals was former MPP Charles Sousa, who represented the area provincially from 2007 to 2018 and previously served in the provincial cabinets of Dalton McGuinty and Kathleen Wynne, including as Minister of Finance from 2013 to 2018.[21][22][23] Alex Crombie, a former Queen's Park staffer and son of Mississauga mayor Bonnie Crombie, was seen as a potential candidate prior to Sousa's nomination.[24]
Running for the Conservatives was Ron Chhinzer, a police officer.[22] Michael Ras, who finished second to Spengemann in 2021, considered running for the nomination before declining.[21]
The NDP nominated Julia Cole, who ran for the seat's provincial counterpart in the provincial election earlier in the year, while running for the Greens was Mary Kidnew, a past president of the Hillcrest Ratepayers Association.[22][25]
Rhinoceros Party leader Sébastien CoRhino contested the by-election.[26] As well, the Rhinoceros Party organized a protest against the Trudeau government's abandonment of electoral reform in 2017 by running thirty-two[citation needed] independent candidates, breaking their own record for most candidates nominated in a single riding in Canada, previously set in the riding of Saint Boniface—Saint Vital in the 2021 Canadian federal election.[27]

Winnipeg South Centre
The riding of Winnipeg South Centre was vacated on December 12, 2022 following the death of Liberal MP and former cabinet minister Jim Carr.[3] Carr had represented the riding since 2015, when he defeated Conservative incumbent Joyce Bateman, and had been battling multiple myeloma and kidney failure since 2019. Carr also defeated Bateman in rematches in 2019 and 2021.
Running for the Liberals is Carr's son Ben Carr, an educator and former staffer to Mélanie Joly.[30][31][32] Winnipeg city councillor Sherri Rollins briefly ran for the nomination before withdrawing and throwing her support behind Carr.[33][34]
The Conservatives have nominated Damir Stipanovic, an air traffic controller and member of the Royal Canadian Air Force Reserve.[32]
Running again after previously running in 2021 are NDP candidate Julia Riddell, a clinical psychologist, and Green candidate Doug Hemmerling, a local educator.[32]
The Longest Ballot Committee chose Winnipeg South Centre as its target for this group of byelections; the group protests the first-past-the-post election method by registering large numbers of independents in one riding in an election or group of byelections.[35]

June 24, 2024 by-election
Toronto—St. Paul's
The riding of Toronto—St. Paul's was vacated on January 16, 2024, following the resignation of Liberal MP Carolyn Bennett.[10][80] Bennett, most recently the Minister of Mental Health and Addictions and Associate Minister of Health in the government of Justin Trudeau, had held the seat since 1997.
Running for the Liberal nomination was Leslie Church, former chief of staff to Chrystia Freeland.[81] She later received formal approval to run for Liberal nomination in Toronto—St. Paul’s in April 2024.[82] She ran against Emma Richardson, a senior advisor with Global Affairs Canada’s United Nations division.[83] The Liberal nomination was held on May 1 with Church winning the nomination.[84][85]
Other prospective candidates for the Liberal nomination who declined to run, included former Toronto city councillor Josh Colle; former Ontario MPP Eric Hoskins, who represented the area provincially from 2009 to 2018 and previously served in the provincial cabinets of Dalton McGuinty and Kathleen Wynne, including as Minister of Health and Long-Term Care from 2014 to 2018; and Toronto city councillor Josh Matlow, who has represented the area municipally since 2010; Matlow ultimately decided not to run.[81][86][87] With his riding set to merge with Scarborough Centre at the next election, Don Valley East MP Michael Coteau was seen as a potential candidate, in order to avoid a nomination battle with fellow Liberal MP Salma Zahid; Coteau ultimately declined to run.[86][88]
The Rhinoceros Party announced that Sean Carson would be the candidate on January 13.[77]
The Conservative Party nominated Don Stewart on January 24. He works for the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization.[89][90]
The NDP announced on April 17 that Amrit Parhar would be the candidate. She works as the Director of Programs at the Institute for Change Leaders, an organization that was founded by Toronto mayor, Olivia Chow.[91] It was previously reported two days earlier by The Hill Times that MPP for Toronto—St. Paul's, Jill Andrew was considering seeking the nomination.[92]
On May 17, the Centrist Party announced Ali Mohiuddin as their candidate.[93]
On May 24, the Green Party announced that Christian Cullis, a constituent coordinator for Ward 11 city councillor Dianne Saxe, would be their candidate.[94] Emma Richardson, who previously lost the Liberal nomination, also sought the Green Party nomination.[95]
On May 28, the People's Party announced that Dennis Wilson would be their candidate.[96]
The Longest Ballot Committee has chosen the riding for its next target;[97] this may result in dozens of independent candidates.
