What r u wearing?

You find this attractive:


Without knowing the CBC at issue panel, that could literally be a dude. You have a sad life if this man-woman attracts you.

[Angle Parking]

Come to think of it, she's not that bad.

[XXX-er]

actualy myself, AP and Pontus have only scratched the surface of all the bad shit Harper has done

Chantal Hebert impersonations are lots of fun you have to get all the shakes and the french accent right

Andrew Coyne who is pretty much a conservative at heart quit his job as editor of the National Post over the papers decision to back the cons ... huge respect to Andrew Coyne

[XXX-er]

actualy according to the rules of parliment harper could hang in there as PM for a year or so he just wouldn't be able to do anything

Man, does that dude have nice hair! man, that was a crushing victory. Tuned in when I got home from work and bad, they are already declaring a liberal victory, majority before the ball game was over. Craziness, I tell ya. I wonder what the voter turnout numbers will be - anyone read/hear anything on that yet?

[Lamothe]

Got to say I agree with everyone here. What an embarrassment that way. It blows me away to see my facebook feed filled with people moaning about not have a conservative government and I'm in my mid 20's. Canada has spoken. It's a good night.

[wicked_sick]

Steve will have Nenshi as a mayor, Notley as a premier and Trudeau as a PM

He's not going to want to come home.

[cat in january]

Good for you Canada.

[iceman]

Come on dude........ Harper and his ultra Bush neo-con bullshit !?! If you are suggesting that the new Liberal reality has it's share of weaknesses, fair enough. But if in any way you are lamenting the loss of Harper's subversion of democracy, xenophobia, retarded Milt Friedman-esque economic suicide and so on and so forth, than I must boldly suggest that you reconsider your 'not getting carried away' stance.

I'm not suggesting anything, I was just goofing on your rah-rah Canadianism, in the same vein as the AD's post seconds before mine. Good for you guys getting rid of that shitstain Harper.

Just shy of 68 %. Highest turnout since 1993.

[Harry]

We have one of your fellow Canadian citizens that you are welcome to have back:




Edit: seriously, congratulations Canada on your return to sanity. Harper was a complete dooshbag.

Deficit spending, sure worked for the USA, 18+T and counting... LOL

I'm almost tempted to send you a scathing message via the Yahoo messaging link you have so thoughtfully provided.

Is that what it was nationally? Apparently it was 73% in my riding.

Harper's record breaking run of deficit budgets and massive debt now has some hope of coming to an end. The man inherited 9 consecutive surpluses from the Liberals, and via asinine tax cuts and idiotic spending drove our economy into the ground. Good riddance.

That's the first time I've ever seen Eddie Vedder smilie.

76% in the yukon apparently. sooooo, social media does kinda have more benefits than just 'people are awesome' facebook posts?

I'm just looking forward and hoping that the general language and rhetoric being dumped through the mass media and gov mouthpieces changes in tone to something that reflects a 'kinder, gentler nation...' as G.W.B. put it. After the last decade of a really negative, fear based tone of Canadiana gov. zietgeist I'm ready to remove my pulp mill stained glasses, put on the rose colored ones and watch unicorns shit rainbows for awhile. The honeymoon won't last and the underlying machinations of the harsh realities of the world will march onwards but it will be nice to remove the skinny sticks, surf over breakable crust with fat skis for awhile until the owner wants his skis back. I'm tired of change, I want something different.

[GeezerSteve]

Best wishes to our friends to the north. Good to see Harper booted.

[TBS]

No fan of Harper - at all - but the best replacemeant you Canukistanis could come up with was a snowboarder?
I know, desperate times require desperate measures...

What's a 'riding'?

[riser4]

And does Trudeau support the TPP? If so, that sucks.

[Lamothe]

And does Trudeau support the TPP? If so, that sucks.

We'll find out shortly!

It's what the electoral seats/ areas are called.
