Well, what did you expect from a communist party? Sunshine and flowers?

It seems so refreshingly modern and industrial


I'm not an advocate of communism anyway, so...

There was a vote at my school for fun's sake, and I voted Liberal. Most of my table friends voted Conservative though. Everybody outside of my table group voted for Liberal. I wonder if that's saying something...

It's Fundy Royal and they're only leading by 50 votes. If one of their strongholds is that close, it's not going to be a good night for them.

Expect that seat to go Liberal Red

The election was within a few hundred votes last time. The Tories were barely a flash in the pan this time while Oliphant was out and meeting with voters; going door-to-door. They Grits had a strong presence in this riding.

It's Fundy Royal and they're only leading by 2 votes. If one of their strongholds is that close, it's not going to be a good night for them.

Oh totally.

If Trudeau wins a solid majority gov't, the phrase, "shy Liberal," may become a reality.

We're shy simply because we don't need to flaunt ourselves. Our history as Canada's traditional ruling party is enough. 8) :p
