There's a new government, it's a minority, not much will happen. Election again with 18 months.

I don't think there will be another election for a while yet. The liberals have to find a new leader, and that's gonna be a hell of a battle. And if the liberals cause another election too soon, they know they won't be re-elected because canadians don't want another election. Each election costs us like a half a billion dollars, and is a waste of time that could be used elsewhere. Canadians ain't havin that. I think it'll be 2-2.5 years. And hopefully the conservatives can do some good things so they can get a majority next time.
And hopefully James Moore gets a cabinet position. Transportaion Minister possibly? I know Harper has to give away the good positions the Frenchies.

I'll give you two years. James Moore in Transportation? Sounds good to me!
Adon, what went awry in BC that Harper lost 5 seats in your opinion?

I was watching CBC and they were saying that tradionally BC is a battleground between Conservative and NDP. Last election the Conservatives were up, this election, it kinda just balanced back out. Last time Paul Forseth only won by like 130 votes over the NDP, and he lost it this time, but everyone knew it was coming. It's a riding with a lot of Union people in it. Jack Layton also spent a lot of time out here in the last few days of the campaign.

That's too bad that there was some ground lost, but it's good for BC anyways. I'm sure you guys are happy with a big caucus with a few Cabinet Ministers.
