A by-election was held in the federal riding of Battle River—Crowfoot in Alberta, Canada, on August 18, 2025, following the resignation of Conservative MP Damien Kurek to allow Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre an opportunity to return to Parliament following his defeat to Liberal candidate Bruce Fanjoy in his former riding of Carleton, Ontario. Poilievre won the riding by receiving 80.86% of the vote, allowing him to return to Parliament as both a sitting MP and as Leader of the Opposition. Independent candidate Bonnie Critchley won 9.82% of the vote, placing second.
