Jonathan Rowe MP (born January 16, 1998) is a Canadian politician serving as the Member of Parliament for Terra Nova—The Peninsulas since 2025.[1] He is a member of the Conservative Party of Canada.
Federal politics
[edit]Rowe's Liberal competitor, Anthony Germain, initially won his seat by one of the smallest margins in the entire election, winning by just 12 votes.[2] Due to the margin of victory being less than 1/1000th of the total votes cast, an automatic recount was triggered for the riding.[3] On May 9, 2025, it was announced that a recount would take place in Marystown on May 12.[4][5] On May 23, 2025, Rowe was declared the winner, having won by 12 votes.[6]
