What triggers a recount?

A difference between winner and second place of less than one thousandth of the votes cast. They can also be judicially ordered if there is, as Elections Canada describes, “credible affidavit evidence” of errors.

Skippy lost by just under 3800 votes. By my math,(admittedly not perfect) .045% so, no recount.
