I'm always on the pessimistic side when it comes to speeches - was his speech really that drawn out? I'm getting mixed reviews...
LOL I heard that too.

Atlantic Canada can wash their hands being Conservative free. They deserve a badge

a lot of my threads involve me fucking up somehow. Perhaps I'm a moron?
Was covering the election for my local paper from the Liberal camp. Our candidate didn't win, in the end, but when he saw those seat numbers hit majority he broke down in tears.
What a surprising night, thank the gods that the cons didn't make a dent. Not even enough to keep it from being a majority. The reign of Herr Harper is finally over!! Woohoo!!
This is how I feel as well, as an NDP voter.

I'm pretty sure a non-trivial amount of Liberal votes would have gone to NDP today. Liberals are at 39.6% and Conservatives has 32.%.
My Atlantic bros, thank you.
I understand that feeling. Although I watched the end, I didn't watch anything else.

Bye Felicia.
oh snap
Sounds like the same old Joe, though.
Usually the day after, after everything is counted.
In the next couple days usually. I'm hoping for 40%, but I don't expect much higher

Elections Canada usually releases those numbers soon after. So mabye tomorrow or even later tonight.

He's always had an incredibly distinctive voice. Very well-spoken.
His voice has always reminded me of Walter Cronkite.
At the same time, I don't think he looks that different.

That's assuming many who voted Liberal would have voted for them any way under PR. I know I would swing over to Green under PR and have in the past when I knew voting for them wouldn't allow the CPC to win my riding and also benefit them financially with my vote.

Quito Maggi ‏@quito_maggi now
Seat count final projection was 177 lpc, 113 cpc, 45 ndp so we didn't do too badly #elxn42

Truly nothing like the leadership of current Conservative party
Yup, this made me laugh
I feel the same way imo he just didn't stand out. I almost always vote NDP and this time I decided to vote Liberals simple because the NDP had no chance in winning this imo. It was important that Harper got the boot tonight and although I'm not the biggest fan of Trudeau I can agree with much on the Liberal platform as well as the NDP platform.

They would be well-served to take inspiration from Joe Clark when deciding on their next leader instead of looking for someone modeled in the image of Stephen Harper.
Hope they find someone that fits that mold.

CBC turning heel with Rosemary Barton cackling in the background over propaganda cartoons of Trudeau tossing Harper into a dumpster.
In all fairness, they earned it after all the despicable shit they had to go through the last decade.

lol CBC didn't even show Duceppe's speech? I know the RoC gives zero fucks about the Bloc but he's still the leader of the party with a few seats on Parliament, come on.
Quito Maggi deserves to run to the bank with his prediction.He was pretty close.
I don't think Duceppe will be leader of the Bloc unless he finds a spare seat after tonight.
CPC has been cutting the CBC budget for years now. Let her have this one.

I think Harper ruined himself with his past remarks about Atlantic Canada to score cheap points out West.
