    Conservatives are leading with 123 seats, and there are ~ 50 to be counted in BC/Alberta. Conservatives are gonna get 95% of these.

        I'm not loyal to any party, I voted for the Liberals until the last election when I switched to the Conservatives, I couldn't reward the liberals for their dishonesty and the scandals, now I can't support Dion, for me Harper is the lesser of the two evils.

                  Tories headed for minority government


                  Mathy, elections are decided in the east, I know that annoys western Canadians. Understandable, but Ontario has more people than BC, AB, SK, MB & the territories combined.

                        of course ontario is huge in the election

                        it showed conservatives with like 120 seats and said 50 to come, at one pt

                        i assumed there were all 50 western seats, but some of them were slow useless phucking quebecers who are incompetent in every way.
                        So I added 50 to 120 incorrectly.

                        Wasn't making a pre-election prediction that Harper would win cuz he'd do well in the west... thats a given anyways

                          Was waiting for that. Yep, the Only province that actually manufactures things is looking for handouts from the resource based economy of the west.

                          Mathy your funny, but I really don't want to get into this, Alberta was plain lucky to have oil reserves in its territory, now they take credit for the oil.
                          Ontario created its own wealth, Albertans pride themselves on their entrepreneurial spirit, but create nothing, when was the last time a plant in Alberta manufactured steel/cars/trucks/trains/helicopters/or planes? The answer is easy - never.
                          Ontario creates all of these things and more.

                            Yes Ontario creates all these things noone wants to buy anymore when you can import it for half the price.

                            Oil has always been here. Why would we build cars when we can pump oil out of the ground instead? Yes we are fortunate to have these reserves, but I don't think it's correct to say Ontario creates its own wealth... you don't have much wealth. And of course for historical reasons, you've got a huge population base = more output.

                            Until recently, the Alberta govt for example has been very fiscally responsible. It paid off a huge debt in the 90s when oil was still $20/barrel. McGuinty doesn't have a clue what he's doing. He is phucking your province over.

                              Right, the numbers here are big, Toronto's population is comparable to the entire province of Alberta.

                              I can't argue that Alberta has been fiscally responsible, they have and they are the model for the rest of the country, Alberta has an advantage though, they were blessed with oil, its because of the oil revenues that they can operate as they do. Plus the relatively small popultaion makes it easier to manage. Taking credit for being lucky doesn't seem right.

                              Ther are also cultural differnces between the east and west, the regions are simply different, not better or worse than the other.

                              I know Albertans like to think that they have it better than anyone else, good on them, but life is very good here in Ontario for myself and most of my family and friends, we have a comfortable place to live, decent jobs and good social lives. I can't think of any reason to ever leave here. 11+ million people aren't here because its a terrible place.

                              Too bad westerners have such resentments towards the east, we don't even give you guys much thought.

                              You are obviously exagerating when you claim that "noone" wants to buy the items manufactured here, if that were the case, manufacturing would come to a halt, it has only slowed down.

                                that's incredible.. i live in Cote St Luc now and all my friends are jews too.. there are more jews here than all of Israel.. true.. and like you, i lived in NDG for half of my life too..all my buddies there were italian. what street in NDG did you grow up on.. i bet i can tell you if you gave me the 1st letter of it.. i know every street in NDG and CSL..

                                also, russians are starting to pour in cote st luc everywhere.. i swear, they are catching up to the jews.. i am freakin out. i hate this.
                                it's insane! i know what you mean. i don't live in deep cote st luc with the jews, i live in the poor area, the building beside where all the russians are coming in. and there's always stuff going on here.

                                last month a car exploded in back of my building, and one week after that, someone wrecked a car by throwing stuff from one of the windows, didn't really catch that one but it's getting bad.

                                everytime i pass by a couple of hot women on the street, i think how it'd be to do them, and then they start talking russian, and i know i have no chance already. every hot woman here is russian, it's annoying.

                                i've lived near westminster, monkland, and cote st luc road.

                                    wow, that's very close. i live about 10 minutes from the shopping center, on westminster and cote st luc rd. my friend knows someone living in your building, and he's big trouble, not even russian, a jew in fact. i think just generally things are going downhill, and crime is on the rise. but yeah partially becasue of the russians. i'd take the jews over russians anyday though.

                                    a few blocks from you too, there's walkley and fielding. those streets are trouble man. i'm even scared to go there during the daytime. always trouble.

                                    it's crazy though, how i never even thought i'd find someone else from montreal on this forum, and here you are, like 3 blocks away.

                                        that's crazy, i hate the east end and mtl nord. a bit too much trouble there. i don't think i've seen any of your park vids. but i'd probably recognize them. there's one across the street form you, gilbert laton, i play soccer there on sundays during summer, we had our last week last sunday. i'm usually at the shopping center, i go to the gym there all the time. i used to shop at IGA often cause i knew a hot cashier there, but now she has a man, who also works there. and i'm placing a dime on No -105, you wouldn't recognize me, cause i'm sure i look nothing like you picture.

                                            oh, there. i thought you meant the high rise building beside blockbuster. i went to the gym for a while, but it wsa almost 2 years ago exactly when i started taking it seriously. do u know orlando? the wide black guy who works there? and dennis? i think he's the owner. u should get back into the gym, different name now too, conditionnement west end. i watch some games at the gym i can't watch at home cause i don't have cable.

                                                i love anna, we never talk cause she's never there when i go, but she's soo petite. i've had her card though for a long time. it's true man, orlando's ALWAYS flirting. and whenever he's talking to a girl, he never says hi to you. he always ignores! i remember once he was in front of the desk talking to a girl, i pass by right in front of him and say 'hey man' and he didn't even move to look at me, and i felt like crap, so i even put my arm up for props, hoping he'd at least give it, and nothing! i didn't wanna be left hanging, so i had to move my hand up onto his shoulder. it was the only thing i could think of. and STILL he DIDN"T LOOK AT ME! what a guy! whenever he's talking with a girl now, i just walk in and don't say anything.

                                                i've never seen boris, but everyone i know has, i feel like i'm the only one who hasn't seen him. i go late nights so maybe that's why. do you know that black guy's name, i think he's jamaican? small frame, but huge muscles, almost perfect body, wears spandex sometimes, trains women mostly, dreads.

                                                yeah i know, it's unreal you live 2 blocks from me. the odds you'd even be in the same city probably exceeds +20000. but to be 2 blocks away from one of the biggest posters here? wish a bookie would have taken that action. we'd be millionaires. i still can't believe i thought u lived in east l.a. for so long. makes me feel like an idiot haha.

                                                    i wish i knew nadia, she sounds amazing. latina? i actually don't talk to many people at the gym, i like to go and leave within 60 minutes. i only talk to a huge bulgarian guy and i never see him there anymore even. there is a big black guy who comes in late, but not around 6-8, more like 9:30 or 10. big arms, he does seem nice, but never talked to him, just spotted for him once. he may be brian, not sure. never seen an indian guy in there other than dennis...

                                                        he actually looks indian, but he's from trinidad (wide receiver). nadia is hottest in gym.. by far. she's iranian/marocan.. that must be brian.. big arms, nice guy, big guy. and does go late alot.. and bulgarian guy, i think i know who you mean.. he also lives in my buiding.. big big guy, sort of chunky, shy and strong as an ox. i might be mistaken, but i am confident you are talking about him.. anywys, we could go on forever here. i can name you 200 more that you might know at least 20 of them.. but you and i just killed this thread and people are going to hate us in the morning when they see our long discussion.. this thread was huge.. it's election day and we hijacked it by talking about orlando, and west end gym and csl.. lol.. anyways neighbor.. (very close neighbor) take care..
