The official results page now projects an increasingly commanding lead for the Liberals, apparently at the expense of the NDP, and the Conservatives gaining with a not insignificant share of what progressives did not claim.
Liberals: 83 ridings, 57.9% of the vote
Conservatives: 42 ridings, 19.9%
NDP: 11 ridings, 17.5%
Although the networks have called victory for Trudeau and the Liberals, it’s not clear whether the latter have enough clout to actually pull off a majority government.”
Don’t understand a lick of it. I assume Harper has done a good fiscal job and now voters are putting in Treudeau to GIMME THAT MONEY!
Yup - gimme, gimme, gimme.
Trudeau is also legalizing the sale of dope, and the taxes on that are going to bring in gazillions of dollars.
Harper did a good job with the finances, but the pop culture won. The adult just wasn’t flamboyant.
Thomas Mulcair’s NDP got decimated in QC.
Four years after a rather impressive win in the province, it looks like a three way split there between the Liberals, Bloc and Tories.
Which is why Canada will have a Liberal minority government tonight.
Harper has not dealt with debt and deficit issues with the numbers going up and that is a criticism of him from conservative minded people, not to mention Trudeau’s potshots.
