snowywolfowlThe storylines I'm wondering about:
1. What type of dirty tricks will the Conservatives do this time to suppress the vote and how effective will they be? It was twice proven in court that they did it in the last election after all.
2. Will Justin Trudeau fulfill Richard Nixon's prophecy and become Canada's Prime Minister? (True story, Nixon toasted the young Justin at a state dinner his father, then Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, held during a Nixon visit to Ottawa. Creepy, but true.)
3. Will the NDP continue to increase its appeal? Might they be part of a minority government if no party wins a clear majority?
4. Was Stephen Harper's use of Rob Ford to campaign for him brilliant insanity or just standard issue insanity? Will Doug Ford make good on his threat to try to become Prime Minister if the Conservatives lose?
5. What will happen to the Green Party? Elizabeth May was rather impressive in the debates but will that translate to a second seat in the House?
6. Are the Bloc Quebecois relevant anymore?
After 78 days of campaigning the suspense is killing me! On to the results!
