Canadian Election Results

CBC just made the call - Stephen Harper will lead a minority government in Canada and will be the next prime minister of Canada.


Since Ace is back, and blogging again, I think I'll call this post my last. I'd like to publicly thank Ace for including me in the motley band of guests whom he entrusted with his blog. It's been fun, and I'll see you all in the comments.

Well, then, I will be the first commenter on your last post.

Does Harper speak French?

Posted by: Dave in Texas on January 23, 2006 10:24 PM

Oui. (Although I don't really know, I do know he speaks the one language I know the Bloc Quebecois speaks: power).

Posted by: Harry Callahan on January 23, 2006 10:31 PM

It should be interesting to see what the Bloc does, considering Quebec threw a lot of support behind the Conservatives. They are obviously trying to get a cabinet appointment or two, but the strength of their showing also suggests Quebec is getting twitchy again.

Maybe another independence referendum in a few years?

Congrats, Canada!

Are the NDP further left than the Libs?

I'm going to Capt Quarters to see what his take on this is.
Ed must be beside himself.

As far as I can tell, the major parties in Canada range from moderate democrats (Lieberman) to moonbat lefitist liberal (Cynthia McKinney) in the political spectrum.

"Are the NDP further left than the Libs?"

Yes, but only to the same extent that Barbara Streisand is further left than Ace.

Can't believe after all the scandals, the Liberals still won 103 seats. Do Canadians not read their own media? Do they not want clean government?

Can't believe after all the scandals, the Liberals still won 103 seats. Do Canadians not read their own media? Do they not want clean government?

Atlantic (Eastern) Canada went Liberal because they saw the Conservatives ahead in the polls and generally buck the trends because they think that's what will give them a greater voice in the government (plus, they hate the rest of the country).
Ontario stayed Liberal because the Liberals have been pretty good to them (just not to the rest of the country).
Those factors, and a last minute surge from the NDP out West (knocking out Conservatives) is what kept the Conservatives from being handed a majority government.
The lesson is: Atlantic Canada blows.

In other news...

The U.S. administration, excited by the resurgence of right wing politics on the continent, has had a change of heart, and has decided to give back the $5 billion dollars in software lumber tariffs that were stolen from Canada.

Posted by: BC on January 24, 2006 11:13 AM

Sure, come to Maine and try to make that argument.

Go to Millinocket or Rumford and try to say that we "stole" $5 billion from Canada in tariffs on an industry that is heavily subsidized by the Canadian government.

I'm not crazy about tariffs, but your wording is imprecise at best.

Apparently Canada doesn't listen to Michael Moore, either.

I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:

Days Are Important: The Amount of Days Was a Number and That Number Was 100 Plus 7 Which is 107. 107. One Hundred and Seven. It's a Memoir and Memoirs are About Remembering Things Because Remembering Things is Good. Not Bad. Good. Memoir. A Memoir. Like a Reservoir But With Memory. We Have to Let it Flow. We Have to Let It Flow Into the Reservoir of Our Mind and Our Heart. Our Heart Which is the Beating Heart of Not Just Our Blood, But Our Progress. And Our People. And Democracy. The End.

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.

Warner was in Costa Rica on a family vacation and drowned while swimming near Cocles after allegedly being caught by a high current on Sunday afternoon. The incident occurred between 2 and 2:30 p.m. local time.
Costa Rican National Police told The Post that Warner was pulled from the water by people in the area and taken to shore, where the Costa Rica Red Cross tried to revive him but were unsuccessful in their efforts.
His body was taken to the morgue at San Joaquin de Flores for an autopsy. The cause of death is listed as asphyxiation by "submersion."
