It looks like this will be the place for online election results: [http://cbc.ca/election2000/](http://cbc.ca/election2000/) Apparently Canadian law forbids posting of any results until 10:00 p.m. Eastern when all of the polls have closed. ---

I don’t know if there’s another thread on this subject, but I’d like to offer **matt\_mcl** my sincerest congratulations on getting the NDP their best showing in his riding since 1988. I’m sorry you didn’t win; Parliament could use as many hippie pinko f\*ggots as it can get. (Did I say that? :eek: ) 😉 So was it worth it? ---
