Not what the term “winner take all” means. It means at the level of individual elections (ie. ridings) that the votes not going toward the winning candidate are meaningless and wasted. It doesn’t matter if an MP wins their riding with 99% of the vote or 51% of the vote. The winner takes the whole riding.
