well its been expected for a long time. the way our system work is that our country is divideing in a bunch of rideings similar to electoral votes/ areas. now each canadian party runs a canadate in each rideing, and the people will vote for that teh canadate that they like. when a canadate wins a riding then he is pretty much elected as a representive in the house of commons( our parlement) in our last election no one party had more then 50% of the number of canadates in the house of commons and so it was called a minority government. in these minority governments the ruling party the party with the most canadates in parlement must try to form a government by uniting with another party to get 50%, the librals of canada had agreement with the NDP up until yesterday and so the government fell.
