CANADA: ELECTION WATCH: Justin Trudeau's Liberals on track to be reduced to a
minority from a majority government, preliminary Elections Canada results show,
meaning they will need opposition votes to pass budgets and other confidence
votes to stay in power.
-Liberals leading in 155 of 338 ridings as of 11pm EST, Conservatives led by
Andrew Scheer leading in 119 ridings. 
-Left-leaning NDP led by Jagmeet Singh leading in 24 districts, Bloc Quebecois
leading in 35 districts, Greens in 3. 
-Need for outside support in minority government may boost short-term spending
