Nugent received some 300 telegrams of support from Canadians following his speech.Parliament was dissolved after the minority government fell leading to the 1963 federal election. Nugent faced former MP John Decore defeating him by just 2000 votes to win his third and final term in office. The 1968 federal election saw Nugent defeated by Liberal candidate Hu Harries.
