  This is about the ONLY time that I actually miss not having television. The CBC, far from the promise of providing election coverage, is sending some new-agey story shit over the airwaves.
I WANNA KNOW WHO'S WINNING! Seat by seat!! Well, thanks to the great interweb, I do. Canada.com actually has a decent federal election results javascript thingy that is pretty AND tells me which parties are winning where, and what the breakdowns are like.
So far, the Liberals are up 45 seats, next to Conservatives' 13 seats. Of course, they've only gone through the Maritimes. I have this horrible, horrible feeling that the Liberals are going to get trashed Ontario through Alberta, and BC might actually be the deciding vote FOR ONCE! I should have voted by mail in BC, but I chose to vote in calgary, where you must vote for the Conservatives or be looked at REALLY FUNNY. Not that I give a shit what anyone thinks. I voted NDP. Not that they even have the slightest chance in my riding. Guess who my Conservative MP is? Rob Anders. Remember him? The ONLY MAN IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS TO NOT VOTE TO GIVE NELSON MANDELA honarary Canadian Citizenship, that's who.
Why? Well, according to Rob Anders, Nelson Mandela is a TERROIST and A Communist. WTF? Has Rob Anders had his alien-looking head stuck in the proverbial sand for the 12 years or so that Nelson Mandela spent in prison for doing what he believed in? That's more than Rob Anders has done and ever will do. Rob Anders is also the man who voted AGAINST giving $500,000 for student summer job funding (like work study) because he said it would ruin the free market economy.
Well, maybe, but if you consider that minimum wage here in Alberta is FUCKING LOW, then you can consider that you could help a LOT OF STUDENTS get the JOBS THEY WANT as opposed to working at Timmy's. ARGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! Anyways, will keep my eyes glued on the comp, as apparently the CBC sucks ass.
