“The risk of a minority government — which might force the victor to seek an alliance with the nominally separatist Bloc Québécois and generally complicate the business of government — may be understated,” Karl Schamotta, chief market strategist at Corpay Currency Research, said in a note on Monday. “A negative reaction could be seen in the Canadian dollar if neither party succeeds in securing a majority.”
