Canadian General Election, Live Thread (UPDATE: Conservatives Win!)
Elections Canada ^ | N/A

Posted on 01/23/2006 8:03:44 AM PST by GreenLanternCorps

If JimRob, etc. approve this is the Live Thread for the Canadian General Election, on January 23rd, 2005.

We have a while to go before the returns start coming in, but I thought the thread needed to get up and running.

The site doesn't seem to. :)

Have had the link, just for some reason I can never log in. Was also trying to find out where the returns would be, if they were, and have found they are on C-SPAN right now!

I realize many of these are not final counts and eagerly await final tally.

Since this will be a minority government, will Harper have to include members of the BQ in his cabinet? Or does he get to choose his own people?

Great news.

Alberta is the only place where a 28-0 Conservative rout could possibly be a disappointment.

"28-0 ain't a big enough landslide," is what I expect to hear from a friend of mine who lives out in the foothills near Jasper.
