We don't know if they are in majority territory yet - but they will definitely win the most seats.
So happy we've avoided the right-wing populist movement. Yay!

(724 posts)I don't think all of Ontario has been counted. Like I said, CTV isn't saying if it is a majority or minority government. I do agree that the Libs needs to work with the NDP (the party I support).

Bloc Quebecois is having an amazing night. They've taken seats from the Liberals, the NDP, and the Cons.

(36,747 posts)Not good.
They've gained 20 plus seats. They did have 10 - now at 31.

(36,747 posts)Liberal-NDP coalition government, just like 1972.
Like father, like son

(724 posts)I tend to vote NDP...but I'm a realist. I'd rather have the Liberals in charge than the Cons. I think the NDP will force the Liberals to go further left.

... isn't the west pretty conservative?

(724 posts)BC not so much. The results from Vancouver will be interesting. They tend to go- or at least when I lived there - with a balance of NDP and Liberal.
