    Canadian politicians need to get used to the concept of coalitions. They work perfectly well in other democracies.
  2. SpankyMcFarland
    FPTP is an elderly system built for two national parties and a few regional parties. Smaller national parties are wasting their time and I think voters are wising up to that.
  3. SpankyMcFarland
    No, not deliberately.
  4. SpankyMcFarland
    We are getting close to a tie on the CBC counter here.
  5. SpankyMcFarland
    I cannot stand Blanchet.

    I don’t like FPTP at all but I’m not sure I care for this protest either: https://www.ctvnews.ca/federal-election-2025/article/elections-canada-managing-long-ballot-with-90-candidates-challenging-poilievre/

    As long as that doesn’t give the BQ any role in the government of this ‘artificial’ country.
  8. SpankyMcFarland
    Apparently, the Liberals outperformed in the advance vote which is counted late in a lot of cases. They may break even in Atlantic Canada and a majority government is possible. .

    The speed of that shocked me. Imagine the number of politicians of every party muttering, ”you jammy bastard” (the Liberals very softly), as they watch Carney accepting the crown. Talk about timing.

    Echoes of 1997 with Quebec as the kingmaker this time after a good Tory showing way out east.
  11. SpankyMcFarland
    So you won’t have to put with me and my posts all night after all.

    I was on a foreign website for what seemed a few moments when I was told there that the election was over. So strange.

    You should see my record of predictions on elections, horses, cars, stocks, girlfriends, investment advisers - a litany of disaster. The more it mattered the wronger I was.

    Some interesting three-ways to look forward to in Quebec. Couldn’t resist saying that.

    Vote change Atlantic so far: Liberals 52.3% up 8.6 Con 40.7% up 9.1 NDP 4.7% down 12.2 NDP vote went to the Tories in Terra Nova-Peninsulas.
  16. SpankyMcFarland
    The local Tories are very happy about their performance in Atlantic Canada so far.
  17. SpankyMcFarland
    I’ll be handing the torch over long before BC. The frequent posts create more drama, don’t you think?
  18. SpankyMcFarland
    Gain for the Tories in Western NL - Carol Anstey. Libs down two, getting anxious.
  19. SpankyMcFarland
    Madawaska Tory ahead.
  20. SpankyMcFarland
    You wild man, you. Seat change - one up for the Tories.
  21. SpankyMcFarland
    Clifford Small is projected to win in Central Newfoundland. He’s got a big margin there.
  22. SpankyMcFarland
    19:12 for the Libs. I wish the swingometer featured more prominently here.
  23. SpankyMcFarland
    2:2. I don’t know if these votes tend to come from smaller places with more remote workers in Alberta. If they’re representative it looks like a swing to the Tories.
  24. SpankyMcFarland
    Tories ahead 2:1 so far - in three seats I should mention.
  25. SpankyMcFarland
    Clifford Small is ahead for the Cons in Central Newfoundland. I believe he is the only sitting Tory in the province and it was a solid Liberal seat for decades before the last election.
