After 12 years in the wilderness, Canada's Conservatives are on the eve of an election victory expected to end Liberal rule, move Canada to the right and improve ties with the United States.Canada's surging conservatives | csmonitor.com
Stephen Harper, if elected, would be Canada's first PM from the conservative West of the country.

This represents a MAJOR change for Canada.

Well said...and it's about time.
