The United States of Canada

Well, now we have a conservative government. It sure was nice to have political and ethical freedom for minorities while it lasted. It's funny how the west, where I live, is celebrating that we have a western PM for once. Greeeat, One who has no respect for women's rights to choose, and for minority rights to be treated as equals of the general population. I'm soo sick of North America, Europe is so much more advanced in terms of social equity. I miss the European way of life too, everything is too big, too loud, and too fast here. Stupid Americans are taking over the entire freaking continent. Well, we all had better start learning the words to the "Star-Spangled Banner", since it seems we will be singing that anthemn eventually.

Awe cheer up it won't be that bad. Paul Martin was a crook, and I wasn't comfortable having him respresent Canada now anyway. I'm willing to give it a year, get a sweet tax break, maybe implement some questionable policies, and go from there.

It's still a minority government though right? Or whatever it's called. Meaning, more or less, very little is going to change, because they have to vote... right? RIGHT?! So, I'm sure a womans right to choose will remain a right and so forth.... bleh

yeah, but its the fact that that's what the party STANDS for. And they may win a majority gov next time. If they did then they could pass new law without needing the support of the other parties. We'll have another election in 18 months or so, minority governments don't last long.
