In case you didn’t know, the ruling party of Canada is embroiled in $100-million sponsorship program scandal at the moment. The early word was that there would be an April election, but now I suspect that the Liberals will delay is as long as they can. Perhaps not until October, 2005 (which I think is as long as they can), but certainly not until summer. The Conservative Party must be salivating at the opportunity to grab some seats.
Which brings me to Don’s posting on the Election weblog, in which he evaluates the results of a recent poll. Despite the current scandal, if the election was held today, the Liberals are still looking at winning a minority government. That would be fun, wouldn’t it?

I think they’d be looking at winning only because of the whopping amount of votes in Quebec, and the fact that a lot of Quebecers may not think that what the Liberals have done (giving them and their provincial economy loads of money) is wrong.
/me removes tongue from cheek
uh that’s $250 million!
The scandal appears to have reenergized the Bloc Quebecois, which is now neck and neck with the Liberals in the province. They are the main reason why the Liberals are, at present, heading towards a minority government, and they could end up taking the balance of power in a minority government situation.
