The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsCanada's Growth
Harper wins it!
Yup the Conservatives have won over the Liberals.
Although it is a minority government, Canadians made it clear that this is the time for change.
What will happen for Canada?
My guess is not too much, at least not to start. We still don't know who's going to form alliances with whom, and how the next 18 months will be as there is still a possibility of another election if things do not go well.
I don't see that happening, though, because the new government needs a chance to grow rather than having opposition jump the gun on that one. Plus, there will be a new Liberal leader, which means that that person will have to prove him/herself before trying to defeat the Conservatives.
No matter what, I'm sure we'll see a lot less corruption and scandal unless the Conservatives find more tidbits from the previous leadership hidden in the books.
Let's hope the past Prime Ministers didn't screw us that much.
And, if so, let's hope this government can fix things properly.
Cheers!

Bravo to CAnada for doing the impossible.
Canada has made me proud and happy.
It was a tough campaign with one party resorting to a scorched-earth campaign.
The Consefvatives emerged with a narrow majority but they ran a clean campaign which will make it easy to build consensus.

This will make many conservative folks in the United States happy (or at least, somewhat relieved) also.
We will most assuredly be watching to see what happens.

I'm happy about the change too!! I'm sick of reading all of the negative hippie crap comments about it though... Ugh!! Anyone who would re-elect a Liberal is a an idiot!!!

Canada made me proud today. American propagandist Michael Moore is probably crying in his cheeseburgers. Best luck!

Not me reading things like that makes my day. ;-)
Who wants a good loser? That takes all the fun out of it.
Let them wail, weep, rend their clothes gnash their teeth and pronounce the end of Civilization. LOL
I wonder if they will have therapy sessions like after our last election?
Just picture Far Left Liberals gathered in circles foaming at the mouth and shrieking obscenities at a photo of Harper?

I'm going to give Sam's blog the scoop:
Ralph Goodale will be the next leader of the Liberal Party of Canada.
