Finally rid of our Conservative Gov't. Liberals took 184 seats to Conservatives 99.
NDP dropped to 44...big loss of a lovely lady representing Halifax in the Liberal tide. A Quebec party managed 10 seats while the Green Party got one for their leader.


Wow! Congrats. It'll be interesting to see what your new head of
government does in a number of hot button areas, such as, for example,
the Keystone Pipeline.


With the price of oil as low as it is, I wonder if that will be on the back burner. A more important issue in these parts is a national pipeline from Alberta to the big Irving refinery next door in New Brunswick. A lot of people on the route don't want it but it might give us a break on stability of supplies and price.


John Oliver had fun with that election the other night.

It sounds like Justin wants to borrow and spend your way to
prosperity. Good luck. I will be watching the loonie vs the US$ and
get an idea ... or just wait another month and hear what the Canadian
snow birds have to say.
