The result reverses the first tally of the ballots after the April 28 federal election, which had Germain ahead by 12 votes.
The winning margin was narrow enough to trigger an automatic judicial recount, according to Elections Canada rules.
Rowe is an engineer with experience in mining and oil and gas.
His win earns the Conservatives a third seat in the province, while the Liberals have four.
