I couldn't watch the election coverage tonight because I was at work. I was just going to blog about all the books I've been reading, but I'm too depressed by the results of the federal election.


AAAAAAH! The Anti-Christ has been elected.

Yes, watching the poll results last night was somewhat painful. In my riding (http://www.cbc.ca/canadavotes/riding/264/), the Conservatives are king - yes that is 75% of the vote...(hey look, apparently the Conservatives are dressing up as the Green Party (http://www.bobmillsmp.com/). I didn't know it was Halloween..?) but I had such hopes for the rest of my fellow Canadians...

The only thing that is making it bearable is that it is still a minority government, at least they don't have total control... Ok, it really doesn't help all that much.

My fear is that they will lay a bit low, that the other parties won't let them do anything stupid and then, next time around, they will get a majority government and really go to town.
