There are talks about a 3 party coalition (liberals, green and ndp) which would have one leader so they would lead the minority government. It sounds awesome but they need to pick a leader that all three parties will like.

I am so disappointed with the results. It's really Ontario that helped the Conservatives.

Now after elections we are stuck at the same place. The only positive about this election is that the Conservatives have not won the majority.

Now will Dion be kicked out of the Liberal party? Probably in the next few weeks. 75 is very weak, especially when they had hoped for 95 and we lost those 20 to the Conservatives. Green party did shitty as expected, which reminds me how Elizabeth May who did not even get elected didn't have her place at either debates.

NDP did okay I guess... I guess they had hoped for more. Now will Mulcair win Outremont? We will know soon enough.

Rather disappointing night. I'm looking forward to federal elections again in the next 1-2 years.

Dion won't get "kicked" from the party, but will definitely resign as leader of the party. He was a horrible leader choice. Conservatives didn't gain majority, i'm happy.

I am sad the conservatives didn't get majority.

You want to know why Ontarions didn't vote liberal this time? Because the economy is in the shitter and the last thing we need is an idiot leader who plans to raise the cost of living with his stupid carbon tax.

Elizabeth May was put in her place after she lost. I thought that was funny.

And as for Dion. Yes Glockamatic is right and wrong. He is going to resign but if he didn't he would get kicked. They let him resign so he can go out with whatever dignity he's got left which was non existent to begin with.

and when he resigns, he's gonna be left with debts of $200,000 of his leadership race campaign. which means he might resign a little bit later this year, just to pay off his debt and not have to sell his house or something because as a teacher there's no way he will be able to pay it off.

^Well it's official he is going to resign when the new leader is chosen next year.
makes totally sense. the party couldn't afford to have a congress to show him the door and stephane dion needs to stay the leader a bit more to clear some of his debt.
