Canadian Politics 

Liberal Party won, enough seats still too close too tell if it'll be a majority or minority government. They need 172 seats for a majority and they're at 168 last I checked. But when I went to bed last night they were at 163.

A minority government with Conservatives as the official opposition. NDP may not have gotten enough seats to retain official party status, and Singh lost his seat, but they do have enough that if the Liberals do have a minority government they could still team up with the NDP to get stuff done. I don't know if either will do that again though.

So many people voted Conservative. It was a really close race in many ridings.

Once again we had to try and stop the right leaning fascist courting party by voting for the do-nothing party.

Also while I'm really glad the Conservatives didn't win, I'm also now going to have to prepare for the Alberta separatists to get really fucking noisy.

@Bel_tamtu I think we're all stuck with the "that was close" thing until the end of time. While I don't think like, half of humanity is pretty inherently evil, a lot more humans are than I initially thought or felt comfortable with, and they're always mobilized better. I think a fairly narrow victory is about as good as any of us will ever get, so I'm glad we get that.
