Who would want to join MOntana anyway ?? Seemed kinda dull there-- Wouldn't mind annexing California though -- then again-- too much crime-- could we just annex a few of their beaches ??You don't get to 300 losses without being a pretty exceptional goaltender.-- Ben Kenobi speaking of Roberto Luongo

In fairness, US Nationals don't know what a liberal is either. The Canadian Liberal Party is not liberal.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Canadian Alliance
Progressive Conservatives
Liberals
New Democratic Party
The Bloc Québecois is hard to classify on a right-left scale, but stands mainly for the separatists of Quebec. Right now the Liberals form the government and the CA is the official opposition.
Since the federal election of November 2000, the national support for the CA has fallen from 25% to 10.5%, the support for the PC has risen from 12.5% to 13.8%, the support for the Liberals has gone from 40% to 52% and the support for the NDP has gone from 8.5% to 13.5%
In other words, it is a broad shift of sympathies from rightist to leftist political parties.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Oh, and support for the BQ is down from 10.5% to 6.8%, which indicates the move away from separatism tha's been seen in Quebec.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

I don't know whether you recall a number of years ago some Caribbean island wanted to join Canada? I forget which one now. That would have been nice!

Maybe the Canadian public sees the right as whining constantly about minor matters, while at the same time standing for the wrong policies?
Stop ranting about how stupid Canadian voters are, and start asking yourself if maybe the majority of them just plain don't agree with you.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

And if they don't, maybe they're even stupider than I first though.

I mean, for Christ sake...
This government "loses" a billion dollars, they totally **** up the gun registry, they are constantly being accused of using their power to push personal interest for friends in their ridings, etc. -- and their approval ratings increase!
There is nothing to describe that other than pure stupidity on the part of Canadian voters."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I'm glad the CA's ratings are going down, they may bite the dust and start defecting to the PCs like they should be in the first place...
I just want the ****ing liberals out of office. Even the NDP for a term would be nice, the Liberals run a ****ing dictatorship right now and it's unacceptable..."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
