That John Oliver piece was good,and funny. Too bad there are a million idiots out there who will forget it's a joke and Oliver is a comedian
He makes it funny, but he often makes VERY good points that probably shouldn't be blown off the wafy you just did (that said, I have never seen that Justin falling down the stairs trick, and that made me really laugh! ). He is actually pretty informative. I actually have never heard of Section 331 of the Canada elections act, have you? What a dumb fucking law, lol.

If you've been watching John Oliver and you think his show is a joke....you haven't been paying attention.
You don't think he is a comedian and the show is a joke? Of course there are some interesting things he brings up, but even he has said in interviews that it's a comedy show, not the news. What's amazing to me is you would take anything a bunch of comedy writers throw on television and NOT think its a joke One in a million dignin.
it's real issues with a comedic sting to it. no different than John Stewart.

Surely you don't think they're that stupid. Of course it's FUNNY. But that doesn't mean that the actual content behind the laughs is a joke, i.e. not insightful and/or factual.

So who has voted? Advance polls or today? I did today.
Voted today, even though I was on the brink of not bothering, since I "Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them," lol. I'm going to be looking into possibly founding the Protest Party of Canada, in the hopes of putting an end to this "anyone but" nonsense. I firmly believe it is our duty to vote FOR a candidate or party, not AGAINST someone else's beliefs, and I feel like my vote has been spit on by this current movement (can you guess which way I voted, lol?).
The PPC will have no platform, and will exist only because spoiled ballots (a legitimate form of protest, in my opinion) aren't counted, and the Rhino Party no longer exists, I believe. If actually elected to a legislature, members will sit in their seats with headphones on, and take visual cues as to when to stand or sit, lol. Perhaps in the matter of voting in the legislature, local plebicites can be taken in advance, so the riding can still be properly represented. It's all just a rough sketch in my head at this point, lol.

pretty sad that Sun media doesn't even remotely try to offer any objectivity ... interesting that he is voting NDP ...
papers endorsing politicians. I don't recall them ever doing that in such an outward manner. usually it was just politician-bashing editorials, but not cut and dry endorsements.
I guess it shouldn't surprise me coming from Sun Media.

Considering John Oliver was on the Daily Show, that isn't too surprising. Listen, if that's how you get your news,have atter.

^^^^ Used to be that way until this election. Blackout was lifted. Now everyone knows results as they come in countrywide. West coast is now watching east coast results. West coast polls are still open for another 3hrs.

I can see why the ndp is no longer allowed in the east. It is a province that has had enough of the ndp not just harper. Nothing has changed in the east forever.

That is not how we get our news. That show is an interpretation and analysis of the news, expressed in a funny way.

This is what's commonly referred to as 'getting thundered'.
A lot of country remaining though.
One riding looks to be dead even (2 votes between cons and libs right now). So the cons still might get that seat. And they'll have to do a recount for that one.

Ahh, so you guys are now more in line with the hilarity that we enjoy. Asshats in the media getting things wrong in projections.
Yeah.... While I really enjoy it entertainment-wise, I do remember when this did not happen, and for fairness's sake, I don't think it should be allowed. ... And now to settle in for a riveting night of election coverage!

This is as exciting as following a setlist thread. Good stuff folks. ABC backfiring on the NDP so far. A lot of voters don't even know the candidate they are voting for other than it is someone that is not. Got to be careful what you wish for. East coast will be even less represented now.

Yeah, it's really entertaining! I admit I am one of those people who really just voted not-Harper. I even had to stand there behind the cardboard screen for some minutes trying to finally decide whihc not-Harper to vote for (whihc surprised me - I thought I was decided when I got there, but once it was in black and white in front of me I was suddenly undecided again... wouod have stood there longer but the line was growing and people were staring at me). Yes, the NDP are crashing hard maybe, and i am sad to see that. I would like to see them with a decent representation, namely so they can act as a kind of environmental watchdog (i say that in relative terms).

So any guesses on Ontario here? Us lefties are getting excited already, lol, but we've only just begun here. Anyone think there will be a massive turn around once the big population ridings start coming in? :popcorn: I am scared.

The results are slowly trickling in from the Maritimes. Liberals are doing unsurprisingly well in the Maritimes.
No exit polling.
