Tonight, on the final Your Turn of the 2008 Canadian Federal Election, our focus was what you thought of the results. Are you happy with another Conservative minority? Apathetic? Did you vote?
The 37-day long campaign had more than its share of ups and downs, and the callers, Skypers and emailers were prescient, reflective and in tune all the way. Tonight, we looked back on the highlights of Your Turn.
How many of who and why? Tonight on Your Turn, we're looking at whether it will be a majority or a minority government, and which viewers think will be best for Canada.
Tonight on Your Turn, we looked at the interchangeable issues of the economy and the environment. With insiders’ outlook and outsiders’ insight, we brought the opinions of viewers and experts together.
Tonight, the question we're asking Canadians is, "Does the cost of the Afghanistan mission make it an election issue to you?" We'll also hear from young voters with Student Vote.
Polls, platforms and change. We invited representatives from the Conservative party, the Liberal party and the NDP to join us and let viewers ask them the questions on their minds.
‘How will the financial crisis affect me?’
Winners and Losers. Who won this week's debates?
The debates. What did you think of the party leaders in last night’s French debate, and what are you looking for in tonight’s English debate?
