Well I was in the right riding with a passport a driver's license and a letter to my house and the process was still difficult

Passports won't work on its' own - bring a bank or credit card statement with your name and current address plus one photo ID.

Do people still get bank and credit card statements mailed to them?

You can show e-statements on a mobile device at the poll.

I just used a generic photo ID card and my health card.

I find it odd that the Canadians living outside of Canada cannot vote. In addition, if they tell their friends or relatives, who still live in Canada, how they should vote, they can be fined or imprisoned for that. Allegedly.

More vote suppression tricks by Harper and his gang.

They can, as long as they've lived outside the country for less than 5 years.

I believe they clarified that by saying that voicing your opinions is perfectly fine, it's when there's a tangible offer to induce people to vote one way or another that it becomes a problem.

Preliminary Results
of the election, see this link.

So far, at this time, the results are coming in for Labrador and Newfondland. With 13 of 1,060 (1.23 %)...

I heard a good analogy.

Harper made the case for Conservative re-election just as the prosecution made it in the OJ Simpson case. The Canadian electorate, as the OJ jury, did not believe the evidence.

I've been using the CBC link. It's much easier to look at and it allows you to 'favourite' ridings.
