 Coolness: 159130 | Gamos, you probably wouldn't side with the Liberals if you lived in Quebec and witnessed what chaos Charest is unleashing around here. He singlehandedly destroyed the Liberals name provincially.
I find it funny that, out of the 104 seats the NPD secured, 58 were in Quebec alone. I don't want to draw any conclusions here but I have a feeling we just demonstrated our real interest in provincial sovereignty ( or lack thereof ). |

| Coolness: 158780 | I actually think the "Orange Crush" was a factor on this one. Split the vote up, allowing the Conservatives to win over longtime Liberal strongholds.
Sigh. |

This is what I feared would happen. I am sadly disappointed that we made 1 step forward and two steps back (NDP becoming the opposition vs. majority conservative government). But there are two things I can be very happy about: The Bloc is pretty much doomed and separation talk can go back to where it belongs: in our province. The NDP is now a nationwide party and could very well be in power four years from now depending on how things go within the next four years. The only thing that scares me is Layton's health in four years, because apart for Thomas Mulcair I can't think of anyone having enough charisma and notoriety to lead the NDP. Then again, I havent seen many of the NDP candidates/deputes outside of the province. |

| Coolness: 146335 | I think it's a good thing for separatists that le Bloc Québécois has finished its "temporary" existence: all of Canada is drowned in blue, even Ontario, excepted Québec which is now flashing orange (with a few other red/orange exceptions in the east, though, with PEI, newfies and nova scotia).
This clash is just demonstrating that Quebec really stands out of Canada, and this will probably be calling for a new referendum for separation... provided le Parti Québécois wins the next provincial elections (which will be within 1 or 2 years at most, I think). Anyways, the really important decisions are made by big organizations (IMF/FMI, WCO/OMC, NWO/NOM etc.) and not by puppet governments... |

| Coolness: 88650 | I was looking up the acronyms you stated flo and all I can get for NWO is New World Order (novus ordo seclorum), now I know such societies must exist, but nothing official :P
Seriously, what is it? (and NOM turns out the french version or nomnomnomnomnom) :P |

International Monetary Fund / Fonds Monétaire International = [ www.imf.org ] World Trade Organization / Organisation Mondiale du Commerce = [ www.wto.org ] New World Order / Nouvel Ordre Mondial = nothing official, only a few more or less secret reunions (called "Council of X", X being 3, 7, 11 depending (like G8 and G20)) with few people and no media authorized inside... You may add FAA, NATO, WHO, etc. |

| Coolness: 88650 | So NWO was new world order :P
IMF and WTO i knew of just didn't associate them with the acronym, but you made it sound so legit that I had to look up NWO. |

I'd agree if the seats ended up 50/50 for the non-conservatives, but it isn't the case. If Cons won over Liberal strongholds, that's the Liberals' fault. In Quebec, there is always a majority of votes for one party, this time it was NDP instead of Bloc, and that can only have helped, since for once we voted for a party that other people in Canada vote for. It would have been worse if if it was the Bloc we went for, 'cause the seats for the non-cons would've been even more divided (ie. 60 NDP, 50 Bloc, instead of the app. 105 NDP / 5 Bloc we got). So, we created a stronger opposition. This time around, I have to say that it wass the Liberals that got in the way, that votes were lost to. And of course, the real reason the Cons got in has to do with the fact that all the 'right' voted for their fair-haired child, and the rest, as always, are divided between the parties that are jut not-conservative. On another note, I think the way the ridings are divided up, even though I understand the logistics of it, don't properly represent the actual population (Some shitsplat town in the Mid-West with 45,000 people get a whole riding, meanwhile 100,000 people in Montreal only get one). Most ridings are app. 100K people, but some small towns make the difference ... Like, Quebec has almost 4 times the population of Alberta, but less than 3 times the number of seats. Again, I know why, but it doesn't seem right . . . 60% of Canada does NOT want Harper. Where's the democracy here? Anyway, strap on your boots, 'cause this is the new Canada, where we become dicks to everyone and lose our polite reputation ... |
