so, to summarize, themes are:

1) the ndp retreats from secularism and gets wiped out of the east as a result of it.
2) the greens had an opportunity to walk into the vacuum left by the ndp but squandered it, opting to a run as a rural christian party, instead. they will see almost no gains, but they may take a good bite out of the conservative vote in the east.
3) the conservatives are in the process of packing up and going back to where they came from, but they're taking their time in doing it.
4) the bloc are half-back. not really. last gasp....last hurrah...
5) the liberals win by default - because they're the natural governing party.
