My best guess so far ... AKA we are so fucked.

How about if the Bloc gets 10% from Gomery-ire?

And yes, yes it would. Which would mean a spring election.

I can't see the conseratives picking up that many seats in ontario. My feeling is the party is viewed as two far western right wing. I don't think it plays well here.

Err, that's if the Tories get 2% of the Liberals' votes in Ont. And I don't see that being too scary far fetched. (Sadly)

Just so i'm clear - that's if 2% of the votes in general across the province switch from the Libs to the Conseratives across the board? I'm not sure that 2% of the votes in more than 2 or more ridings would make the votes that close.

In each riding, if 2% of the votes that had gone Liberal went Tory.

Cutting it down to the simplest scenario (i.e. claiming that no other party's vote will change): Tories get 2% of the Liberal vote in Ont. Nothing else changes.
Tories gain three seats: Chatham-Kent--Essex, Middlesex--Kent--Lambton and Northumberland--Quinte West

At 3%, they gain Ottawa West--Nepean and at 4%, they pick up Barrie as well.
