Well, as of 12:30 am, here are the results.
Con 124 - 36.4%
Lib 103 - 30.1%
Bloc 51 - 10.5%
NDP 29 - 17.4%
Green 0 - 4.5%
Ind 1 - 1.1%
What do you think?
I have to say, Im a little surprised. I didnt expect the Liberals to do as well as they did. Im happy that the NDP made some strong progress. And the Bloc, 42% in Quebec, a lose of 3 seats. Very, very interesting.
Yet, I am very happy with how things turned out. In fact, I think given the dynamic of how the election progressed over the past month, this is very encouraging. Valeri was defeated, Stephane Dion remains, Pierre Pettigrew gone. All good things in my opinion. And Paul Martin stepping down, I think that he demonstrated a side of himself that was very admirable.
I still despise Stephen Harper. To call him the leader of our country makes me feel ill. I have no intention of letting down on criticizing him and when he screws up, I will be among the people screaming loudest, holding him to the same criticism that people handed the Liberals.
But I am still rather happy to this dynamic take place. This will be an all or nothing session I think. Things are changing in Canadian politics. Things are getting interesting. Maybe this session will bring some renewed faith in federalism. Maybe it will send seperatism into a full out blaze. Who knows? No one right now. I look forward to it all though. Its a good night tonight.
