Gary Anandasangaree will serve as an MP under a Liberal government.
Liberal candidate Gary Anandasangaree was elected Member of Parliament for Scarborough Rouge Park following a Liberal landslide in Canada.
Liberal leader Justin Trudeau will be the next Prime Minister of Canada, ending nearly a decade of rule by Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
In an epic 11 week campaign, the third placed Liberals who only secured 34 seats in the previous 2011 election, staged a dramatic political comeback securing well over the 170 seats required to form a majority in parliament.
Anandasangaree, a human rights lawyer who attended Osgoode Hall Law School, was called to the bar in 2006, and managed his own firm in Scarborough.
