the issue. Bet they are secretly very happy. I wonder if the other networks are upset. The radical right wing in Canada has been trying to destroy the cbc so we don't get such smart news because it worked so well in the USA.

Trudeau won, his part will hold 156 seats about. 3 other parties that are center left and far left will hold about 59. Cons will hold 123. That’s if everything holds as it is in the races right now.
