Just stumbled across this while reading the Herald online this morning and found it rather remarkable.

Quote:
For what it's worth from a columnist who fearlessly predicted a Conservative win in 2004, the Tories will win 140 seats, almost double the Liberal seat count amid a surprising surge for New Democrats who will benefit the most from an anything-but-Harper vote.

There's a chance it could be much, much bigger. Former Conservative prime minister Brian Mulroney, despite his many faults, can take the pulse of Quebec accurately. He's telling the campaign he expects a minimum of seven Quebec seats to go Tory tonight and could see 20 going their way if the federalist vote dominos away from the Liberals. If so, welcome to a majority Harper government.
7-20 seats in Quebec? I doubt it....but...

Man would that send a message to both the Libs and Duceppe.
