So what happens now? Do the Liberals spend the first year unwinding the some of the horrible CPC policies?

Does the per vote subsidy return? When do the long form census return as well as water records?

If you don't like the speed of democracy then get a job at Elections Canada.

I see that. If this holds up though I'll feel kinda bad thinking maybe I should have voted for Merner. Lukens currently in 4th.

Didn't you read the platform of the party you voted for?

I hope this is true because even I, a conservative, was growing tired of Harper. I was also finding that I agreed less and less with the party policy. I hope they can build up for the next election.

Ontario is even more under represented than Alberta if you go by population.

Garrisson up around 400+ votes now. Either way, I'm kind of surprised Merner even had a chance.

Turning back some of the bad policies and defunding of science would be a great start. Hope that's what happens.

I'm sure the Red Book v2.0 will be nothing like its predecessor.

Well if nothing else the NDP can drop the budget from hell in Alberta now.

Anywhere that's easy to navigate through to see riding by riding in Alberta?

I think as a Conservative supporter you should be concerned. It appears, as the campaign dragged on, that things Harper once was able to keep a lid on, were starting to come out. I have a feeling Harper is going to be to the Conservative party was Saddam was to Iraq. A not so awesome dude keeping the pot from boiling over.

Judging by how excited the CBC is right now, I'd suspect they have some funding coming....
