Most of my blog posts this past week after been about the very surprising, very transformative, federal election in Canada this past Monday, and I don't apologize for this. The election was huge: the NDP became (and may yet stay) the opposite and the only realistic nation-wide alternative to the Conservative party now in a majority, the Liberals have been halved and put in disarray, the Bloc Québécois have been annihilated. The election changed everything, and in any number of unexpected ways. (The NDP is now the main part of French Canada? Tabernak.)
That's the remarkable political transformation that happened in Canada. And in your country? Have any new political parties appeared to sweep the polls, any old-line parties revivified or devastated, any extraparliamentary or mass movements appear?
