What next?
• Push parties to strengthen equity policies—with specific targets for LGBTQ2S+ candidates and clear definitions of “winnable ridings.”
• Get involved: Join parties, vote in nominations, run for office, support LGBTQ2S+ candidates, and push for change at party conventions.

Key findings:
• Parties nominated fewer LGBTQ2S+ candidates in 2025 than in 2019 or 2021, reversing earlier momentum.
• Most LGBTQ2S+ candidates were nominated in unwinnable ridings, worsening a trend seen in past elections.

As research on LGBTQ2S+ representation grows, we encourage others to adapt our approach to new contexts.

Key findings:
• ~10% of out candidates are missing from published lists — and not at random
• Individual candidate searches uncover those overlooked
• Published lists alone risk underestimating barriers LGBTQ2S+ candidates face
• Time-intensive methods are worth it — methodologically & normatively
