In case anyone is paying attention (LOL!), the last Canadian election resulted in a minority Conservative government. Last week, the Conservatives unveiled an economic "update" plan to deal with the recession which was basically declared to be complete bullshit by everyone, including many right-wing economists.

As a result, the three opposition parties have decided to defeat the government at the earliest possible time and form a coalition government! :O

This hasn't happened since WWI, and it's funny to listen to Conservatives whine right now about how this is somehow "undemocratic" when the minority party is on the brink of collapsing.

Yeah, this is as exciting as it gets in Canada.
