If anyone in Canada decided to pack up and leave civilization in early August and is now just returning, there is little evidence that anything of substance happened in the political landscape while they were gone.

Trudeau’s Liberals remain a minority government. They are set to gain three extra seats, while the Opposition Conservatives are set to stay at 119, all to the tune of around $612-million.

Canadians have been vocal about their views on this election since the writ was dropped. But with most ballots now counted, here’s some of the better thoughts that have since landed on Twitter:

– “$600 million and all I got was this lousy pencil” – @SpencerWallace_

– “$600 million for one seat? Justin could’ve gone to IKEA to get an extra one for like $40. Poor financial choices.” – @fraserpassmore

– “Benefits that keep many afloat during the pandemic are coming to an end, while over $600 million was spent on a vanity election.” -@nashwakay

– “The election cost $600 million and all the seats that flipped could fit in a minivan.” – @BrandonTozzo

– “If this election were a Friends episode it would be called The One Where We Spent $600 Million and Nothing Changed.” – @tarajcarman.
