province.[1][2] The Devine government were also notori-
ous for a home construction and renovation relief pro-
gram which reimbursed homeowners who did their own
renovations.
The Tories lost almost three-quarters of the seats
they had held in the legislature and a significant share of
the popular vote.
The NDP was able to win more than half the votes and
an overwhelming majority in the legislature.
The Liberal Party – led by Lynda Haverstock – was
able to attract a much larger share of disaffected Tory
voters. However, despite winning almost one-quarter of
the vote, their support was too spread out across the
province to translate into seats. Haverstock was the only
Liberal elected to the legislature.
