bjarvisI follow Canadian elections like some people follow baseball or football.
This week was a double-header: provincial elections in Newfoundland & Labrador Monday and Ontario tonight. Woo hoo!
The numbers were streaming in after the polls closed at 9 PM and TVOntario had continuous coverage. The Liberals appear to be re-elected with another large majority. The Conservative leader was losing in his own riding. But just as they were covering my parents' area --the riding of Temiskaming-Cochrane in north-eastern Ontario-- longtime Liberal MPP Jim Ramsay was 500 votes behind the NDP candidate, it happened: we lost the satellite signal. DAMN!
The universe has a twisted sense of humour.
