Western Canada election

Getting these realistic and accurate takes a looooot of time, so the CQ elections will come in the next post.

In terms of popular vote, Reform beat the Progressives, 47% to 46% in both the House and Senate. Reform also managed to win 46 seats, compared to 45 for the Progressives in the house, and 16 in the Senate compared to 14 for the Progressives. Romanow accepted the results and conceded defeat, but committed to keep working over the next 4 years to install a Progressive government.

However, the following election in 2001 only saw Reform win by a larger margin. Romanow would resign as Progressive leader a few months after this.
