Let’s review, shall we?



Via CBC where, for a change, our tax dollars are actually paying for something useful.
(And then there’s the I told you so riding.)
Heh. From reader Pete; “just saw the funniest CTV report ever from the front of the campaign office of Jerry Ritz. Apparently, unlike in the previous two elections, instead of being allowed to cover from inside his office, they have been reporting from outside his office. It looked pretty cold.”
And this just in – Nette Wiebe has just conceded to Kelly Block in Saskatoon – Rosetown – Biggar, which means they know the remaining polls to come in are rural – and Conservative.
Plus – the Twist Of The Knife award!

Well done, Mr. Bernier – may this “STFU” message from your riding to the Canadian media signal your return to cabinet.

Though I’ll be posting updates, I’m not going to liveblog what you can readily access online or on air, but the comments are open for your links, reaction and local reports. Just don’t go breaking any laws, though by the looks of things…

… Elections Canada has better things to do than track down surly beavers.
However, as traffic will be heavy tonight, PLEASE avoid tying up server resources with one-liners, chat, expletives, and whatnot.
Game on!
And in these waning hours, one final pitch from Gaia to the voters of southern Saskatchewan –

Only your vote can save the planet from global warming!
Update: Looks like Dizzy Lizzy picked a bad day to go carbon free.
My goodness, a couple of blog sites are getting slammed tonight. (Try not to hit refresh too often, ok?)
And in other breaking news – SDA still up, Elections Canada still down.
Lusers.
Methinks it looks like Karlheinz Schreiber picked a bad day to go midday cocktail free.
One we’ve all been waiting for – GARTH TURNER DEFEATED
Oh! – and to all my deluded Liberal blogging friends living east of Manitoba – I told you so.

Via Climbing Out Of The Dark – “Now you wouldn’t think of Pallister Saskatchewan as the hotbed of “progressive” voting ideas, but CPAC just happened to catch the Greens and Liberals in action.”

Make your prediction in the comments – to make my job easier, please list the parties in alphabetical order (there are 308 seats in total):
BQ
Conservatives
Green
Liberal
NDP
Other/Independent
Bonus: Predict the popular vote for the party winning the most seats. (ie: Liberal – 30%) The bonus question will come into play should no commentor predict the seat distribution accurately enough to declare a clear winner.
Rules: one prediction per commentor and you must provide a valid email address. No email entries will be accepted.
For the person who comes closest in their prediction (after election results are declared final), I’ll send a $25 donation to the charity of your choice – $50 if your prediction is perfect.
In event of a tie, the comment time-stamped earliest will be declared the winner.
This thread will be declared closed at 4pm (Eastern) on Tuesday.

If anyone out there knows of sites liveblogging tomorrow’s election returns from outside Canadian territory, drop an email to kate-at-katewerk.com so that I may denounce them.
Update:
The Surly Beaver
Allow me to be the first to denounce this rodentious nefariousity!

Last chance to make your own Stephane Dion election sign!

And Dion, over at Bourque tonight.

Add to that comments from one of Canada’s top media personalities, who told Bourque tonight, “if I were a member of the Greens, if i were a candidate for the Greens, I would see her as a traitor, how could i possibly think of her as someone who wants to grow the Greens. She is simply behaving as an agent for the liberals”.

Pierre’s commentary has been expanding in detail all day. Make of it what you will.
I will say that I’ve noticed an uncharacteristic silence in recent hours from certain quarters.
