What if the Election Results in a Better Government?

No doubt much will change in the next week and a half. But as things stand, the Liberals and NDP would have more seats together than the Conservatives. One can envision a Liberal government, following a Conservative defeat in the House, dependent on NDP support and thus tethered to a progressive agenda, recapturing the Pearsonian approach that saw the greatest period of progressive legislation in Canadian history.

What started out as a boring, predictable and unpopular election is quickly becoming something very different.
