He's a mere 6 seats away from matching Ed Broadbent's historic showing of 43 seats in 1988. *applause*<BR/><BR/>The swaths of blue are in larger, more rural provinces with sparse populations, so all that blue is misleading. Red and Orange rule in the urban centers *yay*.Julia Phillips Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15392455413201190775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2715650832746263882.post-34961083599538104402008-10-15T09:51:00.000-03:002008-10-15T09:51:00.000-03:00I think I'm going to move to one of the orange pro...I think I'm going to move to one of the orange provinces.Kelly Boycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15459592836145655997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2715650832746263882.post-84125292145385701072008-10-15T09:50:00.000-03:002008-10-15T09:50:00.000-03:00I'd love to see more orange and green.Dion's carbo...I'd love to see more orange and green.<BR/><BR/>Dion's carbon tax and taking away the Child tax benefit scared me away from voting Liberal this year.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad the MP I kept voting for got in again.

Instead, this diverse country wants strong Liberal, Bloc and NDP dogs at Harper's heels, keeping him in line.<BR/><BR/>Thank you, Canada for getting out there and making your voices heard!Julia Phillips Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15392455413201190775noreply@blogger.com
