I’ve had one heck of a fun day, blogging and tweeting on the rapid political changes happening in Ottawa. The House of Commons has suddenly become a bloodbath, but instead of the red stuff coming out of the Liberals, it’s coming out of the Tories, with Prime Minister Stephen Harper ironically the lead butcher.

I’ve always been a bit of a political junkie, but ever since a school board trustee betrayed us high school students, I’ve viewed it with a bit of a jaundiced eye. And then I got on the Internet. In the last couple of years, I’ve rediscovered the excitement and fun of politics. I’ve met like-minded people, and I’ve been having micro-discussions on Twitter and even some on my other blog about the latest drama on Canada’s Parliament Hill. Tomorrow, I’ll get a chance to calm down and ponder the details of this coalition of Liberals, NDP, and BQ. But right now I’m just enjoying the show. I invite you to come take a look and join in!

    The Internet is absolutely buzzing, and I’ve been having conversations on Twitter and getting some interesting pro/con comments on all the Coalition-related posts on my blog. As you said: stimulating. I can already feel a hangover coming on!
