does that mean andy burtons column is going to shut the fuck up

or will he keep retain his moldy low vis soapbox for another while?

I imagine the soapbox will pass to the new representative.

Interesting, from the usatoday online newspaper the following headline,
“Canada’s Liberals lose Parliament control”.

The BBC got it right.

Jack Layton just mentioned proportional representation in his speech.

Good stuff.

uhm… getting closer now… please tell me andy burtons column is going the way of the fast ferry…

on CBC, there is a 3 vote margin between Cullen and Burton

105/244 polls counted, CBC says Cullen wins:, but he’s only winning 4726 to 4643. If they counter Prince Rupert first, it’s not a good indicator of the rest of the riding. Prince Rupert is only 15% of the riding or so.

The Progressive Canadian party?

That’s the only party named “PC”.

So will the NDP get a few cabinet posts, since they’ll be forming some kind of alliance with the Libs?

sorry, the CP, Conservative Party

Damn. Andy’s now leading.

I am glad that Harper didn’t win, but he does have the nicest hair, but he has funny lips… looks perma-chapped

Nthan 7986, Andy 7270, 155/243 polls.

Perfect!

And I read on cbc.ca that the green party did better, about 4% of the vote.

It appears that during Paul Martins triumphant speech about a better canada and vowing to up hold his promises and do all that he can to make his promises a reality, he touched his nose with his index finger. I’m sure everyone knows thats the international signal for, i’ve just told a lie, or i’m going to tell a lie. Does it scare anyone else?

I hope commidians caught that cuz if i was someone like that guy from the Monday Night Report i’d totally make a comment or two about it…

Yay for election day hooplah!
