...Andrew Scheer came out to give his concession speech. He'd just gotten five minutes into the "I want to thank everybody who..." when Trudeau came out to give his victory speech...and they cut away from Scheers concession speech to hear Trudeau's victory speech.

Maybe they had agreed upon a time Scheer was to talk.
