Are you kidding me Canadians are still very cynical and complacent with our Government. The last election told me we expect incompetence and mismanagement or just don’t care at all. No tolerance level was met that for sure.

Lowest voter turn-out EVER!!!

Perhaps you read my post too quickly, since I specifically stated; "We have delivered unto them a government that demands the parties either work together or be corrupt together, and if they are the latter, we will remove them from, or limit their power." And yes, while the turn out is low, it is par for the course. Julienne it how you will, the complacency was shown on the part of those who do not vote, not those who do. Canadian political election fervour is vastly different to the US, whereby we have 4 viable parties, not two, and a difference in election strategy as well, fevered by those who vote to ensure that the party in power going into the election if they are corrupt, is waylaid. The rest don't give a care since they have decided that all are as equally as bad as the next, and for all intents and purposes, they all were too far off centre.

In short, those who do vote, like myself, rallied behind and promoted a third party candidate for MP. Some even used that not well known non-confidence vote we all have. The end result is now, as it was several times before, a minority government, i.e. the best practices of politics when no one is good enough to hold a majority, and Martin governs on pins and needles, I can't ask for more than that.

Here's hoping that Canada is as happy to welcome these fine people as we are to see them go.

I will predict that those who actually do leave the country over something like this will find that the problems they try to leave behind will follow them wherever they go.

God bless them, I hope they find happiness.

If you intend to come to our country [Canada] ; check the weapons at the boarder and BTW we don't mix religion and politics and hatred against gays and racism is a crime that we take very seriously.I think that America Democrates would find that Conservatives are closer to their way of thinking than Liberals.

Theres tons of jobs here in Vancouver and some of my wifes friends are guys and lesbians....so no problems here. The biggiest problem is housing....costs are obsene in most places.

Having said that if you land in the 'bible belt' you may see alot of similarities with bible thumping rednecks down south , oh and don't live in Alberta, they want desperatly to be Americans.

BTW don't listen to these losers, right wing religious america is so right wing its starting to smell alot. I never understood how easly a population could be seduced until I saw the decite/fabrication leading up to this war.

I always assumed any civilized western society would be immuned to this propaganda rubbish. Now I think I finally understand how Hitler seduced germany in the 1930s. The fact is that if GWB tried some of the religous based politics in Canada, he would be laugh out of Parliment.

If you intend to come to our country [US] ; check the trees and weed at the boarder and BTW we don't mix immorality and family values and hatred against success and pride is a crime that we take very seriously.I think that Candian tree huggers would find that Liberals are closer to their way of thinking than Democrats.

Theres tons of jobs here in Pennsylvania and some of my friends are guys and girls....so no problems here. The biggiest problem is housing....costs are obsene in most places.

Having said that if you land in the liberal ciyy you may see alot of similarities with tree hugging up north , oh and don't live in Massachusetts, they want desperatly to be Canadians.

BTW don't listen to these losers, left wing liberal america is so left wing its starting to smell alot. I never understood how easly a population could be seduced until I saw the decite/fabrication leading up to this abortion stance.
