1. Can't do it.
Canadian election laws say it's illegal to post (or broadcast) results until after ALL polls have closed. Right now, unless you live in Atlantic Canada, you (theoretically) don't know any of the results. Needless to say, places like twitter.com have already busted the ban.

I'm tempted to do the same myself, since I live in Nova Scotia...

Meh. It's still seesawing around here and there; besides, what happens here isn't really an accurate barometer for the rest of the country.

10. While noble in intent
such laws are anti-freedom of speech.

2. Media blackout on results - nothing until 9:30 eastern.

5. Seems to have.
Now for Quebec, where the fleur de lis is likely to be biggest.
