if martin would have threw some more people in jail over the sponsership scandal he may have had a chance. i wasn't satisfied with the gomery inquiry so i did'nt vote liberal.
i did'nt want to vote for harper because of some of his statements that follow the neo-con agenda.
i voted ndp purely out of regional issues. they have a good grasp of enviromental matters that coincide with business.
it may work out ok we'll see. harper will have to tone down some of his more radical ideas if he hopes to get anything passed.
edit: my dislike for the whole liberal bureaucracy and appointed civil servants added to me not voting liberal.

Someone please explain this to me, because I can't wrap my head around it.
There are 308 seats in the house of commons, which means 308 ridings.
the Globe & Mail's live coverage online says that 40 000 of 66 000 polls are in. And yet somehow the four main parties have already won over 250 seats between them. How can 80% of the seats be won by 60% of the votes!?!?

some ridings have lots of polling stations. depends on the geographics of the area.

oh yes, i suppose that does make sense, especially if it's the prairies and the northwest that get counted last.

I think these are the final results:
Basicly major cities went Liberal while rural areas went Conservative. The biggest surprise is that the NDP gainted 10 seats. BQ lost 3 seats. No green seats
I was really hoping they would have at least one, a great party imo.
I think it's time to support the green party. I hope next election they can get 1 or 2 seats.
Paul Martin resigned as the leader for the Liberals which means at least a year and a half until the next election (they need to choose a new leader), most likley late 2007 or early 2008.
It's not all that bad, because it's a Minortiy government. Hopefully next election Canadians will have a little more sense then to elect such a puppet.
