Once again this year, Torontonians woke up seeing an electoral map which appeared to literally resemble the previous one. The

s won a majority and were holding the city in their hand with just one chair fluctuating amongst the Grits and NDP. The Progressive Conserv

atives were knocked off by the Toronto Liberals as well as the PC, John Tory. The Liberals accomplished 71 seats of the House of Commons and the Conservatives won 26 and the NDP accomplished 10. The riding was held in Toronto holding 26 seats, whereas the New Democrats only had 11. Catch a look at Tory during his concession speech held in Toronto,

He stated this after the Premier since he choose to "serve the public and the province and the party" by assuring how to persist with party members. Ridiculously, Tory stated in his concession speech that he took complete blame for his failure. Tory was very disappointed with the election

results and why shouldn’t he be? To make everyone believe that he was alright with his loss, he stated, “I think we fought an honest and principled campaign, but the people have spoken,” he said. “I’ve always felt that you respect the decisions made and that’s why we have elections,” (http://www.canada.com/nationalpost/news/story.html?id=34610fe8-fc8c-4451-a160-751be82fbc1f). Assertively, he ended his speech off stating that he will remain working his hardest and one day will earn definitely the trust required. Stop one second, is it just me or is that too much confidence? I guess the future will tell! Moving on, McGuinty was unbeaten because he knew that, "Ontarians innately respond to positive agendas, they want to know what we can do together, what we can build together". He was more confident and aware for what he wanted to change and accomplish within Ontario which was one of the many reasons why he was elected, (http://communities.canada.com/nationalpost/blogs/ontarioelection/archive/2007/1

0/11/even-after-the-election-mcguinty-stays-on-message.aspx). “Mr. McGuinty also ran on a platform that promised $14.7-billion in new expenditures, including $3.1-billion for public education by 2011, $100-million more for hospitals and more health care workers, and money to get tough on crime” (

Generally, Tory, the party leader of the Conservatives turned out to be unsuccessful once again in this year’s ballot. Well, this blog post wrapped everything you need to know regarding the elections for this year, the Liberals won a majority!
