Liberal Minority Government

Liberal Minority Government

Wellโ€ฆ the Liberals appear to have won a minority governmentโ€ฆ The current parliamentary seats break down as follows:
Liberal โ€“ 135
Conservatives โ€“ 99
BlocHeads โ€“ 54
NDP โ€“ 19

Certainly will prove to be an interesting next term for parliament. I was hoping the Green Party would get a seat or twoโ€ฆ Doesnโ€™t look like it will happen though. However the Greens earn funding with 4 per cent of vote. The Green party, fighting to be recognized as a legitimate fourth party, recorded a major boost to its fortunes on Election Night, winning four per cent of the popular vote. With four per cent of the national popular vote, the Greens will qualify for annual funding of $1.75 per voter.
