but in the last election the Liberal Party and New Democratic Party combined got 62.76% of votes

Voter turnout for 2004 was 60.5%.

According to your numbers, that would be 20,830,200 voters,
and 8, 576,000 immigrants.They vote en mass, and in blocs.

According to your math, they carry almost 1/2 the vote.

If you have any evidence to the contrary, fire up. Otherwise, please fall silent. An argument must be backed by evidences.

No, an argument must be backed by facts.

All I know is if this country goes liberal ONE MORE TIME, it is finished as a country. These Liberals are totally hard core socialists. They are endemically CORRUPT. I seriously question the sanity of ANYONE who could vote for people they KNOW are criminally corrupt.

The figure I stated was the best possible case for Anglophone who voted conservatives - assuming all immigrants voted in the same proportion as native Anglophones.

In fact the rtuth could well be even more against you - less than a majority of immigrants bother to vote and this is the norm across all Western countries. Dad has a good friend in Markham who halped organize a Chinese Liberal MLA candidate win an election in 2003 (I should stress I disagree with his politics but it ia anotehr matter). At that time it was only after a struggle that 40% of Chinese bothered to vote. If we assume fewer immigrants in proportion voted and more than a majority of native Anglophones voted - this works here in NZ - then it is obviously much more than 36% of Anglophones voted the Left. The answer could well be like 45% to 31.5%, we don't know.

Sorry, it looks like the facts seem to stack more against you.
