Well what the fuck.
Everyone knew that the bloc was in trouble ( fac : getting pariseau and marois out of a closet to say to vote Bloc reaked of desperation), but for them to lose everything but 4 seats ( with duceppe not even being elected) was rather surprising.
90% of the greater montreal region just turned orange tonight, even in ridings like Hochelaga. In fact, Layton pretty much stole most of the bloc's seats in quebec. He's done something no other party has done in years : defeat the bloc in quebec.
The big upset is how badly the liberals did in ontario. Something like 75% of it went to the conservatives, and with the west, that means Harper's gambit paid off with a fucking MAJORITY.
So Quebec drops the bloc, and the R.O.C. votes for more of Harper...This is just unreal. The bloc as a political organisation just ceased to exit for the next 4+ years, the liberals are in fucking shambles, and harper can now do whatever the fuck he wants.
tomorow is the start of a new era in canadian politics alright...
