Hey, There’s An Election in Canada!

We’ve had enough of our US elections that we haven’t had much of any chance to cover the election tonight in Canada. Suffice it to say, stuff has gotten rough enough for incumbent PM Harper that he actually had to stoop to the level of enlisting Ford Nation in his campaign. I’m watching the results here on the CBC site (seems reasonable choice?)

The word going into tonight is that it looked like the Liberals, led by Justin Trudeau, the son of legendary Canadian PM Pierre Trudeau, looked like it might be on the verge of unseating Harper and creating a majority Liberal government. And the polls show that the Liberals only really started to break away in the last month or so. I don’t have enough of a feel to know whether that’s going to happen or not?

Are you a Canada politics fanatic or just up in Canada? Drop us a line and tell us what you’re seeing, what to expect.
