Via the BBC: Canadians to elect new parliament
Canadians are preparing to cast votes in a general election with opinion polls suggesting the first Conservative government in 12 years.The election, the second in 18 months, was triggered when Liberal Prime Minister Paul Martin lost a confidence vote late last year.
[…]
Two last-minute opinion polls put Mr Harper’s Conservatives 10 points ahead of the Liberals - 37% to 27%. But they suggest the Conservatives will not gain a majority in the 308-seat house.
Matthew Shugart is going all Canadian elections for the moment, so surf over to Fruits and Votes for more info.
How are the Tories going to put together a government? Surely the NDP and the Bloc won’t ally with them?!?!!
Maybe the NDP will get enough seats to be the ultimate power broker.
It should be interesting!
