While the Conservatives are still hanging on to a fairly stable (if somewhat diminished) 33.7 front runner position, the NDP wave which has continued in Quebec is now gaining a strong foothold throughout English Canada. The NDP stands at 28.0 points nationally and they are seeing important gains in virtually all parts of the country. Michael Ignatieff’s Liberals are stuck at 23.7 points but are still in the game in Ontario. These results, if they were to hold, would produce a profound transformation in the Canadian political firmament, tantamount and arguably more far reaching than the Reform explosion in 1993. With the current splits, these levels of support would produce 131 Conservative seats but the NDP would have 100 seats while the Liberals would hold 62. Together, the NDP and Liberal Party would have a majority and 31 more seats than the Conservatives, as well as nearly 20 more points in popular vote. It is hard to imagine how these totals would not produce the once unimaginable outcome of a Jack Layton led coalition government deposing Stephen Harper’s Conservative government.

 Coolness: 108795 | What the fuck is up with politics, do you really think you'll make a revolution? Even if there's a referendum for separation in Quebec, and you can be sure I'll vote for it, it's not like it's going to happen ; wait until all the money problems start pouring in then see the "support" drop in the few more referendum for separation to be done.
Politics is just that, politics. I dream of a nation but I'd be quite content to TRULY have the 101 law applied in Quebec. Parizeau and his dream of a separate nation before his death, hah! It won't happen before mine ; I'm confident a peaceful separation take quite some time. So let's get that asshole out of ottawa and the next in line will slowly become an asshole as well, maybe not as much but one none-the-less. Harper is buddy-buddy with our neighbors but perhaps it's not only ideological, perhaps there's real reasons that we started to bend to their empire ; maybe a couple more years with the liberals and they too would have started to collaborate in wars of aggression and buying better that second-hand military merchandise. We'll never know, those documents are quite classified and there's likely just a few very trusted people that know the whole story. When I'll vote, I won't think it will make a real difference, I'll just show some mild support for my ideology fully knowing it's just a pat on the back. But I guess this is symptomatic of our society. Just take for example OUR habs, that we only show support when they win. What an amazing support! (I don't give a fuck about hockey.) |

I'm definitely voting NDP, and I would suggest anyone else does too. Until there is a more left-leaning and socially progressive separatist government available to vote for in Quebec who will suggest a viable means of separation, and an explanation for the relevance of such an action outside of language and culture, considering that Quebec is still part of the multi-cultural North American continent, I can't see the point of voting for a bunch of moderately liberal politicians just because their manner of speaking is "chez-nous". The Bloc is not spotless and often has a rather racist viewpoint on language and culture. To ask for equal rights while not respecting those of immigrants is hypocrisy, plain and simple. To ask for special rights and then deny those rights to Native people in northern Quebec is also hypocrisy. GO JACK! |

One scenario: A Liberal minority and boosts for the Dippers and the Greens (maybe an actual seat) — if, that is, you place stock in small sample polls and expect non-voting youth to vote like voting youth, for which there is no proof. |
