The swing to the Conservatives was a backlash reaction, and it was highly predictable, at least to anyone actually paying attention.
Your rant is foolish and ignorant my friend, but hopefully you got your enlightenment in some of the answers. But would it have been so backbreakingly tough to just say "Why did Canada vote in the Conservatives?" instead of coming from a "Fuck are you people ever stupid" perspective?
Stew on it.

First of all, I do follow Canadian politics a bit. I know about the sponsorship scandal, the gomery commission, etc. I get the CBC Newsworld on satellite and I occasionally read Canadian papers.
Second, my question was, if the only reason for the change was punishing the Liberal Party, why not swing to the left and elect the NDP instead of electing a far right religious conservative who does not represent any of the values the rest of the world thinks that Canada stands for.
Third, as I've said already, my "fucking Canada" perspective was tongue in check. I figured anyone who read my post could see that. A jab at the "I hate Canada" crowd. Plus it can't hurt the amount of people who read the thread.
