Best for him to step down. Let’s not confuse my subjective fondness for the guy with his objective failure as NDP leader.

Oh no, did Jagmeet lose his seat too? I’m a liberal but Jagmeet is a good guy, didn’t deserve that.

Good spot check, thanks

1 short may as well be 2 short, because the house will elect a liberal speaker and reduce the vote number one more. But, whatever will happen is set in stone, waiting to be counted. I don’t know why I engage with this as if its a story unfolding, like I can influence it by watching.

It’s time allotment in the HoC and money for staff, research, etc. Not much more.

I may as well get to bed, but I wish I would know before if the NDP will have enough seats to prop up an LPC minority. I’d hate to see the LPC+NDP be one or two seats short, leaving the CPC/BQ with enough votes to stymie everything. Right now it’s sitting at 170 combined, need 172 or more to make it work.
