In case you get your Canadian election results off CNN, here are some of
the 
details:

Conservatives      124  seats      36.3% popular vote
Liberal                 103               30.2%
Bloc Quebecois     51                10.5%
NDP                     29                 17.5
Independent             1


Green Party                      0                  4.5%

==============================

 Thanks for that, Bruce. I note that the BQ got a lot more seats than
the NDP despite having a much smaller popular vote. There was a movement
toward voting reform in Canada a year or so ago. Has that petered out?
Because it looks to me like a lot of Canadians are wasting their votes,
which leads to discouraging voting, which is considered not a good
thing. 
 Oh and it wasn't just CNN that ignored the results. The British media
gave more prominence to Ignatieff than to the rest of the election.
