Oh shit, the Liberals won a majority

[snowywolfowl]

Damn it, even when the party I vote for wins I lose. I did not want a majority government. I LIKE it when parties have to consult and win support from their parliamentary foes. It keeps things balanced. Darn it Andrea Horvath if you'd supported the Liberal's budget earlier we'd have saved $90 million, had a very nice progressive budget passed, and the NDP could continue to play kingmaker. Good job throwing all that away, and good luck having any sort of influence over the Liberals now.

That being said it could have been much, much worse. A Progressive Conservative majority would have been a disaster. Oh well, its done. Here's hoping the scandals the Liberals had to deal with will teach them the necessary humility to rule well.

I used to like a mixed party government here, too, but now it's a "dig in your heels" mentality, and I'd be happy with a liberal majority. I don't foresee that happening for a LONG time.
