The coalition fills them and it's just another log to toss on the western seperatism fire.

Really, it's coming together as a perfect scenario for that.
- Parties with only 23 of the 95 western Canada seats.
- Party 1/3rd of Toronto seats
- Another Prime Minister from Quebec (ousting a Calgarian)
- Official deal with the Bloc to do it.
- Technically, three leaders of Quebec roots.
- Economy doing well to very well in the west, vs. poor to okay in the east.
- Governing only by decision of a GG whose vote in the 1995 referendum to stay in Canada is up for question at best.
- Appointing a bunch of senators very quickly after assuming power (and there's no reason to believe that they'll wait).
It's just a charismatic leader away from making a lot of noise. I think a lot of people won't want to actually leave, but they'll want to form a BLoc-like party that essentially gets to call its shot as a major lobby group.
