I'm predicting a Conservative government. The real question is whether or not it'll be a minority or majority government.
hotcurry:
Oh, the exciting world of Canadian politics. tongue
tioga:

missshell:

saraphine:

The Mercy Seat--Nick Cave
Dozen Girls--The Damned
A Rock and a Hard Place--Sisters
I'm so tired. Just got back from NY. Met an Asian comic book artist-who turned out to be a freak!! You're much sweeter, hon---I wish you were him! People suuuuckkkk puke
darke:
Either way, you're still far less likely to get your ass shot off on any given day that I am. biggrin
lycoris:
Yeah poly as in polyamorous, which is just a nicer way of saying polygamous. Like zoophile instead of beastialitist. wink biggrin
shellymc:

saraphine:
you are so funny...at least you admit it. and the romance was your idea so whatever you want! oh i am easily impressed in that department
lycoris:
I never watched Schoolhouse Rock. I was the oldest in a household with a black-and-white tv, no cable, until I was maybe 8 years old.
shellymc:
and i'm sure you have been told already...
but its official...
Sienna Miller has been cast to play Edie Sedgewick.
and even though she is nowhere as beautiful...
i have seen some pics, and due to some great makeup artist, the likeness is pretty damn good.
saraphine:
Whoa! Sienna Miller???As Edie?? First it was jennifer hewitt as audrey and now her??? Ack. Cananda......Finally i will get what i deserve
shellymc:
Well... if David Bowie and Jared Harris could somewhat pull it off!
Who knows..... Guy Pierce is a good actor...and he is certainly frail looking enough!
I loved him in "Ravenous" and "Memento"....
having a hard time though picturing him in a silver wig!
darke:
nah, it's just statistics man... Canada has like 4 gun deaths per 100,000 people, US has like 15.
darke:
you'd have to tell me... not that everyone here is a trigger-happy bastard, but after spending some time traveling through Italy in 2004, I am aware that Americans are wound pretty tightly. frown
lycoris:
There's a clip on the site you linked me to! wink
lycoris:
Oh, I see, the file's not found. frown

At least it's better than a Tory government. frown mad
toothpickmoe:
Well? What happened? I'm counting on you to be my lifeline to the world of Canadian politics!
darke:
Interesting contrast, I've never been to Canada. The lack of courtesy I know firsthand though, yeah. I'm a bit of a bastard on a daily basis, but I'm typically a fairly well-mannered bastard... I have noticed that people in the US think you're nice if you're courteous. Funny that.
eddie:
yay desktop. I really need to change mine.
toothpickmoe:
Ah, bummer. The US-ifying of the Canada? Say it ain't so!
thefreak:
So...did you want the Conservatives to win? I am confused, plus I don't know jack about Canadian politics.

-TM
voile:
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!! Harper is a nut job and he's going to totally fuck up our country! I'm going to go jump off a cliff...
ARRR!!!
noctua:
It's a minority, so it means that they can't ram through some of the more controversial legislation they'd like, simply because all three opposition parties have the votes to defeat it.

And, unlike the Liberals, the Conservatives have no natural allies to help them get a coalition government to pass legislation. They're going to have to fight for every bill they pass.

Anyone who thinks the Conservatives bought themselves a free ticket is either: a) a deluded Conservative; b) a overreacting Liberal/NDP/Green supporter.

Look at the bright side... your plan to learn how to shoot this year is no longer in jeopardy, something that would've been had the Liberals won today.
