Investors and speculators should have to eat the loss, they took the risk now take the hit.

Best for him to step down. Let's not confuse my subjective fondness for the guy with his objective failure as NDP leader.

Oh no, did Jagmeet lose his seat too? I'm a liberal but Jagmeet is a good guy, didn't deserve that.

Good spot check, thanks

1 short may as well be 2 short, because the house will elect a liberal speaker and reduce the vote number one more. But, whatever will happen is set in stone, waiting to be counted. I don't know why I engage with this as if its a story unfolding, like I can influence it by watching.

It's time allotment in the HoC and money for staff, research, etc. Not much more.

I may as well get to bed, but I wish I would know before if the NDP will have enough seats to prop up an LPC minority. I'd hate to see the LPC+NDP be one or two seats short, leaving the CPC/BQ with enough votes to stymie everything. Right now it's sitting at 170 combined, need 172 or more to make it work.

Please give me just enough new dems to get things passed. I wanted a lib majority, but if it's a minority give them enough new dems to work with.

This is disgusting, how can so many Americans look at this man's antics and think a single positive thing? A criminal, rapist, liar, narcissistic, selfish, easily manipulated, hate monger, moron but the exit polls say "oh Trump would be best for the economy" like are you fucking kidding me? The guy with the plan to slap a tariff on every other thing? The guy who can't string together a coherent speech for the economics club? What a joke this all is, and here I am absoltuly physically sick about it. I'm sick because it actually matters, it does, it matters and it's so damn close this fucking clown could be in power again, after killing so many people, after taking women's rights away, after all of it, and because what? Voters remember cheaper bananas or some shit? Fuck this life.

No need to apologize if you ask me.
