forget those party, they problably got less than 1%, and are ignored by the media.

the liberals won ~ 135 seats mostly in the maritime and ontario over the conservative, in quebec, the bloc won easily over the liberal with ~54 seats because of the sponsorship scandal, in the west, conservative all the way for ~99 seats.

main issues, healthcare as usual... childcare program, sponsorship scandal and thats about it.... the rest of the campain was axed on scaring the population about eventual change.

The numbers of seats each party received is quite misleading due to the undemocratic nature of our voting process.

For example the NDP increased the size of their popular vote by over 1,000,000 votes from the previous election, quite close to their all time highest amount of support, which shows the strength and appeal of their new leader Dr Jack Layton, who did not even have a seat in the House of Commons (he does now).

The merger between the Alliance & PCs resulted in a substantial drop in Conservative support across the country.

Overall it was the left-of-centre parties that really made the gains in support, although it didn't completely materialize in the respective number of seats.

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don't.
