Fun facts

If you were to combine the number of MPPs or MNAs with the number of MPs for Ontario and Quebec, you'd get the following.

Ontario
108 Tories
64 Liberals
39 New Democrats
1 Independent
1 Vacancy

Quebec
58 New Democrats
58 'Quebecois'
58 Liberals
24 'Tory Coalition'
2 QS

And if you added Senators to the mix

Ontario
123 Tories
71 Liberals
39 New Democrats
2  Independents
2 Vacancies

Quebec
66 Liberals
58 New Democrats
58 'Quebecois'
39 'Tory Coalition'
2 QS
1 Independent


One of the Ontario Vacancies is in Durham, a pretty solid Tory riding. The other is in the Senate where members are appointed; since this is my list, I'll make the appointments, and I'm deciding that Borys Wrzesnewskyj is getting appointed. (This has the same effect of Borys winning his riding in a by-election, and Opitz getting appointed to the Senate, something Harper would probably do)

Ontario
124 Tories (Hudak)
72 Liberals (Rae)
39 New Democrats (Horwath)
2 Independents

For a balance of
124 Government
113 Opposition
