So I think the Maritimes are going to be closing in an hour or two - thought I'd open up a thread to discuss the results tonight.  Rememebr kids - be cool and edgy by breaking Elections Canada's rules right here!

And for kicks I'm going to post some election results.  I steal my moto from TMQ - all results guaranteed correct or money refunded.



Conservatives: 143
Liberals: 64
NDP: 68
Bloc: 32
Green: 0
Independent: 1

What sites are you looking at for online coverage?

I'm trying to find some.

and hoping people here can give some links.

Once the main election results are released, I'll probably stick with CBC.  Though I kind of want to check out Sun TV for a bit. :lol:

I must remind you that polls do not close here in B.C. until 7 p.m. Pacific.  If you post any results here before that time you will be in violation of the Elections Act and poor BB will have to report himself for assisting, nay encouraging, people to violate the law.

For BB's sake wait until polls close.

How about links to where such despicable activities are taking place? Are they also in violation of the act?

Can a provincial prosecutor prosecute for a violation of federal law?

So we can make sure not to visit them, even by accident. :yes:

And I'm no longer a Federal prosecutor, so I wouldn't be responsible for prosecuting charges under the federal Elections Act. :shifty:

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

Even Canadians who are not Federal prosecutors are bound by Federal Election Laws.

But are they required to report violations?

Anyway, back on topic. News the last few weeks has me wishing I had gotten an absentee ballot.
