The magic number is 155. If the Liberals and NDP can't combine for it (and they won't), then it doesn't matter that they have more than the Conservatives. Now if the Conservatives and the NDP combine for 155+, then it gets interesting.
Cons 123
Lib 103
BQ 50
NdP 30
IND 1
1 seat to come?
Real close to 155 but not quite for Cons with NDP on a given issueYou don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment

Trying to find the riding by riding results. CBC is spotty so far.

They laid out their grounds for support (for any party) earlier. Basically they stick so hard to their principles that it ends up being a poison pill for the other party.Originally posted by Ramo

Because the Cons floated some pretty mainstream platforms that the NDP have traditionally supported. Stuff about ethics and oversight, for example. I'd imagine the NDP would support the child care tax credit as well.Originally posted by Ramo

generally they wouldn't ideologically-- but they have tended to be pragmatic and have given support to past minorities (usually the Liberals) in return`for some of their issues being forwardedOriginally posted by Ramo

Its tougher to see this type of alliance with the cONS AND NDP but is possible on some issuesYou don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto LuongoComment

I can't wait to see any party courting Andre Arthur - the independent - in a close vote. That'll be quite a show. That guy only likes the sound of his own voice, and that's on a good day.What?Comment

The NDP are farther from influence than before.
Take one away from the Tories (the Speaker) and the Tories-NDP make only 152 when they need 154 (155 less the Speaker).(\__/)

What a mess, but there is plenty of election left to go. The liberals can't even make something work with the Bloc.
Only one that works is Bloc and Conservatives.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

The numbers aren't set yet by any means. On the CBC it keeps bumping around near the 155 mark, with 1 seat still to come.~ If Tehben spits eggs at you, jump on them and throw them back. ~ Eventis ~ Eventis Dungeons & Dragons 6th Age Campaign: Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4: (Unspeakable) Horror on the Hill ~Comment

They can ask someone from another party to be speaker of the house. Can't see why any of the others would agree though.Originally posted by notyoueither

Lots of election to go, but the CBC is having technical difficulties.
