    We dodged a fucking bullet last night and ended up with the best possible outcome under FPTP: a minority government with NDP balancing things.

    • Amen.

      It's interesting in the 2019 world to see who's spouting conservative nonsense on social media instead of holding back...

    • and Bernier losing his seat.ben_
    • I wonder if the Cons will start agitating for PR, given they got more votes but fewer seats.i_monk
    • I have young family and friends who are spouting (conservative) rhetoric all over the place and it's kind of fucked up.ideaist
    • NDP, Cons or the Bloc all have the balance of power. He'll deal with each according to his needs of the moment.zarkonite
    • lol @ bernier...Salarrue
    • A communist is never happy with opposing views.Hayoth
    • Blackface /SNC Lavalin / Firing his best two females ministers / An Idiot Abroad!! Sorry - he’s a fool ....really hoped for changeStatic_Line
    • Apparently Cdn QBN crew is all located in the east lolStatic_Line
    • Or they're abroad. And this Canadian aboard voted NDP. Best possible outcome, as i_monk said.Continuity
    • Anything but the ConsBennn
    • Only Con voters gave a shit about Lavalin, and possibly only to convince themselves the problem didn't begin under Harper's watch.i_monk
    • NDP are 4th place peripheral. 1 seat in Quebec, a critical region. Libs have 35. If Trudeau needs any support, it will be from exchange with the Bloc, 32 seats.BustySaintClaire
    • Libs and NDP have more common ground in policy and urban demographics, and the NDP won't push for one province getting special treatment.i_monk
    • *raises hand. west coast here.
      i also thinks minority liberal is the best out come. Trudeau's an idiot, and does need to be put in check.

    • At least he's a well-meaning idiot and not malicious as the Cons have become.i_monk
