"That's not an applause line." lol

Maxime Bernier lost his seat. Yves- François Blanchet BQ has kept his seat but the BQ is poised to lose 12 seats.

What did the BQ do loose so much favor? As usual I am out of touch with Qc goings-on.

Anti-Conservative sentiment in Quebec. The Bloc is never going to hold a majority, so strategically at this time the Liberals were the obvious choice to keep the Conservatives out of power. Among other things.

The comment about Fanjoy potentially winning! Oooh roasted!

Can't believe the CBC Live news coverage .... just a moment ago, they asked Conservative Jason Kenny what his thoughts were on resource development in regards to First Nations

What the hell do you think he's going to say

It's like asking a Irishman what his thoughts are of potatoes

I just have no patience to listen to "what if" the whole night.

This might be the most interesting thing so far, actually, with the orange-blue swing votes in second place.

Poilievre could leave this as a freshly minted lobbyist: His first normal job.

"He's earned his right to stay as leader."
Dude it's not even guaranteed that he's keeping his seat.

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.

CBC reporting that some people are finding that the elections Canada website is not working.

The numbers for Fanjoy have been holding above 2300 for over an hour, as writing this, 219 of 266 polls.

Interactive live results pages are clearly losing this election.
