Election night has come and gone with no great drama. Thankfully the
Conservatives were held to a minority, that would have been a messy
four years!
The sad part for us Urbanites is the representation in the government.
The three Metro regions of Canada's biggest cities(Vancouver, Toronto,
Montreal) have 0 Conservative seats. It sure says allot of the stark
differences between rural and city folk.
Though I did not vote Green, it was unfornate not to see them score a
seat. On a positive, they did pop up on teh CBC radar at one point in
the evening. Apparently they jumped into the lead at one point, which
was cool enough. They even managed to get 3rd place in some ridings,
another positive.
