Canadian Conservatives Stay in Power

Some of you might remember that, last month, Canada's left wing opposition parties hatched a plot to throw out Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper without an election. Well, due to some clever moves by Harper, that plot officially collapsed today and the duly elected Conservative Party will stay in power.

Adam Brickley (who you might remember as the "Draft Palin" blogger), has a great column on this situation posted on his new blog, "The Brickyard", so you should definitely head over there and check it out.
