Canadian Politics Today

Voters in Canada have a long tradition of tradition of getting so sick of the incumbents that get flock to a previously marginal upstart. Sometimes the upstart flames out like the federal NDP. Sometimes the big political actors unite under the new label and the upstart becomes one of the two competitors for government like the BC liberals. The Green party was in the right place at the right time.

those Green Party seats have ya just a tad 'uneasy', hey! By the by, your analysis fails as that long tradition you speak of had 50 years of a regular back and forth — the Liberals winning three, then the PCs winning three. By that count/routine, it was the PCs 'turn' this election... even as you attempt to belittle the Green Party's results.
