I can't help but think it was more active before the split; I find the Chamber in particular just lacks good threads of the type I like to post in, which is a shame.
Activity definitely has dropped since the split. But it was also on the decline before that. The split just made the situation worse. Posts are far down both in quantity and quality.
Yeah, the forums seem to be dying. We need the US to invade some random country. Or the Euro to finally crash and burn and Europe to become a mess. Then we'd have lots to argue about. Someone warn Obama and Merkel.
I seem to have the same observations but do you know of any actual figures. I like numbers...
Same and I think I visit this site less than you.I don't have access to stats. But I do recall that in the past every thread on the first page of OT would have new posts each time I logged on, and sometimes some posts on the second page as well.

Well, we have access to such figures just as much as anyone does, in that we can all count if we wanted to.
To answer Silurian, I imagine we will probably be looking for fresh opinions at the beginning of next month or something, when people have settled into the change. It's hard to know how to interpret this poll (people may have changed their opinions since voting, for example).

Don't worry, it should mostly be over (the election and the bickering) in about 6 months.
unfortunately, it is just 6 months until the next one starts.
And never going to happen. As much as I would like it to and am horrified that Canada is moving towards a continuous election cycle like the US, especially if we get more minority governments in the future.
