Canadian Election Projections

Conservatives are predicted to win, but with less than 40% of the vote (via Yglesias):


Why the U.S. ended up with red meaning conservative and blue meaning liberal, I don't understand.  Anyway, here is the projected seat breakdown by province:


I think it is interesting how the Western provinces are almost entirely Conservative, the Maritime provinces are slightly leaning Labor, and then there's Quebec.  I would think that minority government in parliament would be tremendously difficult and frustrating.

An election that changes 4 seats seems like a waste, too.
