Always nice to know that 10 minutes after elections closed and impossible to be counted in BC that they are able to already call the election with a level of certainty. Such a flawed system.

CBC calls for a Liberal government. No mention of minority or majority.

Now they are suggesting a possible Liberal majority.

Even a Lib minority might be the end of Scheer. He was given a very favourable set of circumstances (SNC, blackface) and still couldn’t deliver.

Well I thought it was going to be a lot closer than that. Was hoping BC might actually matter for the first time in forever. At least I can hope my NDP candidate wins my riding.

How do committees work in a minority government. Could the PC/NDP/Bloc for an investigation of the SNC stuff? If so maybe the minority could get rid of them both.

Haha. Someone on CBC mentions how great it is the election hasn't been called before the BC results are in then five minutes later they call it for the Liberals.

One can hope. I believe he is the reason for the failure.

This is damn close. Total failure by Singh and Scheer to topple a very mediocre PM.

I wasn't against a minority but it needed to be closer than that

Whoa, did that CPC strategist just say that there is a two election strategy with Scheer?! No way he gets another election...
