Minority support

The results from the Nova Scotia election have been well-reported so far, and I don't have a ton to add to some of the other commentary. But it's worth noting that the voters of Nova Scotia are proving wrong the conventional wisdom that a minority situation inevitably means legislative chaos which naturally leads in turn to a majority government. And if Nova Scotia's minority continues to produce good results for the province, then there'll be a strong counterexample to Harper's inevitable claims that he needs a majority federally in order to accomplish anything.
