In relation to yesterday's Canadian election...the Conservatives didn't get a Minority. According to Wikepedia, they got this...
In voting, a plurality vote is the largest number of votes to be received by any candidate or proposition when three or more choices are possible. With only 2 choices the winner would have the majority. The candidate or proposition receiving the largest number of votes has a plurality.
Therefore with a whopping 143 of a possible 308 seats, the Conservatives will rule with a plurality government. Isn't that the same as double-speak?
