Predictably, the Liberals under Dion didn't do well at all (leader change coming soon huh?)
Also, I'm glad to see the NDP got 8 additional seats
And no, I didn't vote for the Bloc.
What are your thoughts about the results?
Well, I voted PC, mostly because they were the party I hated least. I was surprised to see the Bloc so much higher than the NDP. Unfortunate that the PC's are talking about more cuts to athletics, arts, etc but that was likely with all of the parties though. The opposition was always quick to accuse the PC's of ignoring the little businessmen, and favour the big business, but the big business is what drives and supports the little business. my $0.02
