[Canadian politics] Federal election

[yuuago]

Well, the result wasn't as bad as I feared, so at least there's that.

Since I voted two weeks ago, I had nothing to do after work on Monday except track the results and bite my nails. Probably wasn't the best plan; that was nerve-wracking.

I've been very disappointed with Trudeau and the Liberal Party for a good while now. But at least there's time to fix some of those problems, maybe. (Trying to be optimistic, here.)

My riding managed to pull even more Conservative than it did in the last federal election, which makes me feel kind of sick but also completely unsurprised. But at least Alberta didn't go 100% Conservative - there's one tiny splotch of orange in the Edmonton area. Fine; I'll take it.

All of Brampton went liberal. Would have been nice to have seen more orange, but like you said, not as bad as it could have been and OPTIMISM

In this situation, all one can do is try to be optimistic, I guess. orz
