With all these damn Liberals fearing for their lives like the country is about to turn into a military state, not too long.

ps. i heard that Harper is starting an "inquisition" of sorts, but against gays.

I give it 8-12 months before we are back at the polling stations to vote again

None of the parties want another election until they can pay off the debts from this one. That will take at least 18 months. However, we should all note that the Liberals are now without a leader. It will likely take 6-9 months before a leadership convention can be held and a leader named. Rest assured the Liberals will not want to bring the house down anywhere near that time BUT the conservatives might. I would not be surprised if Harper pulls a Deifenbaker (sp?) and dissolves parliament shortly after the Liberal leadership convention. It's a good move because people don't like voteing for someone they don't really know (remember Stockwell Day?) and whoever takes over as the Liberal leader is likely to be someone who has been out of the lime light for a while (McKenna?????). That said, it can also backfire if the public tunes to the strategy involved in the timing and deems it to be dirty politics. How the public would react to such a thing is a function of which party is able to control the focus of the media.

If I had to predict I would say that parliament will be dissolved within 1 month of the Liberal leadership convention if Harper dissolves the house and 2-2.5 years if the opposition votes non-confidence.

They had a stretch of something like 49 elections in 48 years.

Imagine the voter fatigue and the drain on the public coffers.

The only way I could see anything lasting ten thousand years is if Harper puts Canada in ruins

Come take a trip with me, you're beautiful when you're high. I see the sun in your smile, you see the moon in my eyes. Colours take on new meaning, thoughts make shapes in your mind. Your spirit dances with newfound numbness and frees you from earthly binds

Many women in Canada who voted conservative either don't have an interest in abortion rights, or don't support them. Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you are automatically pro-life vs pro-choice. It's a very personal issue that is tied to one's religious beliefs for many - the younger generation of Canadadians don't have the same relgious convictions that the older Canadians do.

Canada as a whole is still very Christian.

I am personally very meh about the results of the election. Harper doesn't have a majority government, and that was the big concern for me.

well, the Libs will be restructuring for about a year, so I say 18 months.
