So we have a Conservative Minority Government in Canada. It's a mixed bag, really. The people angry at the Liberals for being in power for 13 years got their day in the Sun, and the people who have an intense dislike for the Conservative platform will see most of the reactionary bits mitigated by the minority status of the government.
