Yeah, I hear you about being punished for not voting Conservative. I know Harper spoke about governing for all Canadians but considering his track record so far I'm skeptical it will be anything more than just words once everyone gets back to the house. Here's hoping Layton can keep him honest for the next four years or so.

As for the Liberals, I'm not sure what will happen there. If they can't stake out distinct territory from the Conservatives and the NDP they're going to go the way of the dinosaurs, dodos, and Progressive Conservatives.
