CTV supposedly says NDP poised to be official opposition, per Twitter.

If the NDP and the Liberals form a coalition, does that mean that the title 'official Opposition' goes to the Conservatives, or does it paradoxically remain with the NDP?

Projecting first and second place I can understand, but I wish at least that we had networks that vaguely understood the parliamentary system.

These Tories seat counts are getting scary. Especially because the Prairies are still out...

Judging from the Atlantic results I saw, current popular vote %s are similar to the last Nanos poll:

37.1 CON, 31.6 NDP, 20.5 LIB, 5.7 BQ, 3.8 GRN

I'd assume that would go to the Conservatives.

If the NDP makes enough gains from BQ, I could see it happening, but if BQ maintains enough seats, I don't think they'd go along with a coaltion, and we'll see a minority government with the Conservatives again.

Of course, there's the 3rd option of the NDP and the Libs cancelling each other out too much and the Conservatives gaining a majority.

Not necessarily.  The Prairies closed at the same time as most of Ontario and Quebec.  Only BC and Yukon are still open (and perhaps part of a riding in Alberta).

Canada owes the world another minority (preferrably followed by an NDP minority). What should we do for fun if the Tories win this election outright?

BQ just dropped to 2... I'm not sure what CBC is counting.  I assumed these were seats that were called, not as they go.

BQ back up to 3...now 4.  Perhaps it was a typo?  Does anybody know how CBC does this?

Perhaps they have a computer that counts all ridings where a party leads as "going" to that party?

Reported leads in ridings - even if only one poll is reporting.

If the Bloc is wiped out and they don't get a majority, that'll most likely mean a coalition for the Libs and NDP.

Conservative majority, ~170 seats.

That would mean the most accurate pollster was COMPAS?
