2011 Federal Election in Atlantic Canada

Atlantic Canada may see a lot of changes in the 2011 Federal Election. The Conservatives are gaining more popularity than normal on the East Coast of Canada. There are 32 available seats in the four Atlantic Canada provinces. The Liberal leader, Michael Ignatieff hasn’t focused very much on the East Coast and has not built very good relations with Atlantic Canada. Liberals have dropped significantly in popularity while the Harper Conservative and NDP have gained.
