36-Pickup

Over on Livejournal, I commented about the election that BC, bless our "screw-you-Canada" attitude, had thrown all its cards in the air and mixed it all up. The South Island is a perfect example -- in the three ridings we handed back one representative of each major party: NDP in Victoria, Conservative in Saanich-Gulf Islands and Liberal in Esquimalt-Juan de Fuca.

I had to laugh when the Tyee noticed, too: Oh, Fickle British Columbia!: "You've got to love B.C. When a bandwagon rolls across the country, we're the ones at the back, leaping off."
