I just wanna say again

Fuck you Wayne Gretzky for endorsing the Conservatives

How does Don Cherry usually vote?

 

[TheStruggler]

I hope they lose their jobs over comments like that.

I agree unacceptable comment and behaviour, sometimes common sense just doesnt kick in

 

[B-Dex]

C'mon South Surrey - White Rock, you can unseat the absolute safest CON seat ever. I did my part !!!

Omg same riding. This is weird.

Do you even have to ask? lol

You're being way too dramatic. You don't win every election with the side you vote for. Just like life, you can't win them all, you just come back and try again next time.

Believing in the NDP is like believing in Bernie Sanders. But at least with Sanders, you only get jerked around for a year before being disappointed. I feel like I've wasted a decade of my life.

Harper scorched too much earth among urban and suburban "New Stock" Canadians.

Jason Kenny's work in 2011 was burnt to the ground with Harper's choice in 2015 of going big with Identity Politics.

Identity politics did not help Pauline Marois win and it did not help Stephen Harper win.


Harper was a total dumb ass thinking that Pauline Marois's loser strategy could be a winner Federally.

Yeah, ultimately a new leader will just do the John Tory thing of being completely moderate and milquetoast so that when people inevitably get tired of the Liberals, the CPC wins by default.

 

[Apathy]

You'd think NDP supporters would be used to losing.

Don't kick them while they're down lol

[Zekes!]

Yo, shit my riding (Esquimalt-Saanich-Sooke) seems to have swung to the Liberals too

I should have stuck to voting for the Greens instead of trying to bolster NDP votes!

 

[Silexx]

Serious question?

 

[PumpkinSpice]

Comens 190009!!!

go home you're drunk

 

[gutter_trash]

Oh man, same can be said for the NDP. Their centrist campaign didn't work in Ontario, but we heard Mulcair use the exact same failing words as the Ontario NDP used throughout the campaign. Not sure what those NDP strategists are thinking.

but the difference is that Harper has damaged the Conservative brand among ethnic minorities that will leave them a bad taste for a generation

it is the type of damage that lasts a long time and I mean a long time.

 

[NetMapel]

Omg same riding. This is weird.

My official address is still there, but I live in Vancouver downtown now. I made sure I went to my closest Elections Canada office and voted for LIB in advance.

Get that CON out of there !!!

 

[Mr.Sumal]

GG Trashcona. Only Conservative riding in Winnipeg.

the vote split is real

 

[Achtius]

Unionville has a ton of new condos, and so you would expect more support for pro-urban policies. There is a transit right of way that was just built!

I guess not.

Then again, maybe the attitude is that they got the infrastructure they asked for, and so why change?

I don't know anyone who live here want those transit (it's practically empty everytime i see a bus)

 

[Dr.Acula]

Omg same riding. This is weird.

If someone else from this riding posts, one of the three of you will have been born in India, I learned from the CBC.

 

[Mr.Mike]

Strategic voting going wrong fascinates me.

Just vote for who you like guys

It worked out.

 

[UberTag]

Why do people keep asking if Charest will run for the conservative party? He has nothing in common with Harper or that party. Charest was part of Mulroney's Progressive-Conservative party, which pretty much only have the name in common with our current Conservative party, which is a rebranded Alliance/Reform party.

Charest does not care for Harper or his party. If he ever runs for the federal elections, it will be for the LPC.

I agree with you but the if the Conservatives want to abandon the radical fringes of their party that so jaded the rest of the nation against Harper's principles, embracing the heritage of the PC wouldn't be a bad idea. I don't think they will. I think their problems have festered far too deep. But, as a progressive, I would love to see it. I can't vote for that party so long as the stench of Harper's intolerance permeates throughout it. Even if he himself is gone.

Jean Charest doesn't stand for anything, except being a federalist.

so yeah, he fits perfectly with the Liberals

What a great response!

Don Cherry votes for Good Ontario Kids from Mimico, Ontario

 

[matthewwhatever]

GG Trashcona. Only Conservative riding in Winnipeg.

It's not over yet there! I think we'll have a recount, at least.

 

[Smiley90]

holy shit Cloverdale-Langley is red too, was 55% CPC in 2011

heck DELTA IS GOING RED

DELTA

also from 55% CPC

Richmond going from 1 district with 58% CPC to 2 districts with both Liberals as MP's

this is madness

 

[maharg]

BTW, everyone who takes the "Shy Tory" concept as a given, please remember tonight the next time you think of talking about it.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

You'd think NDP supporters would be used to losing.

That's cold man.

 

[firehawk12]

Ah, Harper stepping down but will stay in his seat.

 

[Professor Renegade]

 

[Simon Belmont]

The real winner in all this is the GG.

 

[gabbo]

Yeah, ultimately a new leader will just do the John Tory thing of being completely moderate and milquetoast so that when people inevitably get tired of the Liberals, the CPC wins by default.

A story of Conservative comebacks and you choose John Tory as your example? Joke, right?

 

[Blue Submarine No. 6]

and good riddance!

 

[firehawk12]

That's cold man.

It's true though. Fuck the NDP.

A story of Conservative comebacks and you choose John Tory as your example? Joke, right?

This is how he won Toronto. He literally did nothing and won by default because he wasn't Olivia Chow.

 

[Fuzzy]

Oh god, Rae is on.

 

[NetMapel]

holy shit Cloverdale-Langley is red too, was 55% CPC in 2011

Not as amazing as LIB being 1000 votes away from defeating CON in SOUTH SURREY - WHITE ROCK ! WTF is going on ?

 

[Walpurgis]

The real winner in all this is the GG.

Hahaha. He's probably relieved. Now he's safe to continue being paid for nothing.

 

[Cake Boss]

19191919191928!!!

 

[matthewwhatever]

Yo.... yo yo yo. Is that a rural saskatchewan riding that's leading Liberal?

I called that one! The Liberals seemed to have the best candidate there, and I thought they'd pull it out.

 

[Sean C]

Bill Blair being interviewed on CTV right now, talking about the government immediately moving to legalize marijuana as a science-based way to protect children and fight organized crime.

And Joe Oliver is confirmed defeated.

 

[Sibylus]

KELOWNA RED AGAIN BY 4 VOTES

 

[Discharger]

Yeah, that's my riding too, and I had higher hopes for us. Oh well.

Same.. well, at least the result is what I wanted

 

[Zombie James]

191 now, holy shit.

 

[sikkinixx]

So far my thoughts going into advance voting worked! Cons have won for a good long while and everyone said vote NDP to get cons out. Bet on a surge by Liberals and so far it's coming true.

 

[sindbadthesailor]

Liberals: 190
Conservatives: 104
NDP: 33
BQ: 10
Green Party: 1
Other: 0

As per CTV

 

[maharg]

I understand why NDP supporters are so upset. This was their chance to finally break through, and Mulcair completely blew it with a terrible strategy and a lousy campaign. If I were in that position, I'd be devastated too.

I'm disappointed but not at all devastated or upset, and I don't think any NDP supporters should be unless they were actively part of the campaign.

The NDP wouldn't be the first party to come back from 35 seats.

 

[excelsiorlef]

Ohh I may have spoken too soon about Kennedy Stewart yaaay. He's just behind the Lib now.

 

[Smiley90]

Not as amazing as LIB being 1000 votes away from defeating CON in SOUTH SURREY - WHITE ROCK ! WTF is going on ?

nono, Richmond Centre going Liberal is pretty fucking amazing. But yes White Rock?! Cloverdale?!

there's a LOT of very very conservative people living there. Harper fucked the CPC over big time, that's incredible

 

[lastplayed]

The real winner in all this is the GG.

Whoever wins, she er... wins.

 

[Simon Belmont]

Bob Rae NDP burn!

 

[jstripes]

Haven't been in this thread for a few hour, but was watching on TV!

Majority! Amazing!

 

[Apathy]

Bill Blair being interviewed on CTV right now, talking about the government immediately moving to legalize marijuana as a science-based way to protect children and fight organized crime.

Canada can finally be progressive again

[Sibylus]

HOLY SHIT 120 NOW

Er, 42. I'm going to give myself a heart attack. First election where a ballot I cast could matter.

 

[UberTag]

Oh look... it's Bob Rae. Tonight was like a double win for him.

 

[TUSR]

wait we are?

 

[mo60]

I never expected the liberals to get over 190 seats or even a majority.
