Thoughts on upcoming Canadian election? — Page 3

Very interesting indeed. Surprisingly, the Liberals gained seats in BC relative to the previous election.

I'm trying to take this all in stride, but I admit that I'm most worried about how there won't be one cabinet minister representing Canada's urban centres (no Connies were elected in Toronto, Vancouver or Montreal). I don't know if the Connies are equipped to understand or appreciate the increasing importance of the country's major cities, and the opportunities and problems that arise from urbanization.

Carolyn Bennett won in my riding.
I gotta disagree w/ u re the pendulum swing in 16-18 months. I think that Harper will throw his right wing base a few bones to keep 'em quiet ( cos yr right he CAN"T push thru his agenda)while seriously wooing the cities. THEN when the parliment does fall again and people go "well, he really wasn't so bad... let's try em w a majority..." THAT's when the gloves will come off and all h*ll will break loose on our country.
Harper consults regularly w Mulroney. Should that NOT say it all??!!

I was going to respond to this thread but your posts, BlueWiz, from 1/24 pretty much summed up what I was thinking much more eloquently.
