Saddo U.S.Presidential Poll

True enough. Here, if you watch TV or read the newspaper, you can't avoid US politics. British politics, you have to go looking for it. People in Canada are generally interested in US politics. I would imagine that Canadian politics really doesn't interest too many Americans. Just a guess.

This is very true. I was just in Canada over the weekend (Windsor) and I always get the feeling that Canadians are bending over backwards to keep Quebec from leaving the union. Am I right?

That's a tough call. Honestly I'm not sure whether or not the majority of Canadians bend over backwards or not to keep Quebec. They certainly get lots of concessions from the federal government. It depends on the province. Ontario would fight to keep Quebec, Alberta and to a lesser extent BC don't care that much. Myself, I think the French/English duality is one of the best parts of the country, but I can understand why the hard core separatists feel the need to have their own country in order to maintain their identity.

I remember sitting in the bar once with my friends, and we were watching on TV the tallying of the votes for the Quebecers voting on separation. They voted 50.5% to 49.5% to stay in Canada. That was more dramatic than any 7th game world series or SuperBowl, let me tell you.

Well Ontario is the only province I've been to. The missus and I might give serious thought to relocating there. We enjoy it every time (and the women are hot too).

If you do make the jump, drop me a line. I know a good bar in Toronto that shows all the fights.

Ontario is cool. Toronto is cosmopolitan city that has just about everything you could want in a city, and there is alo good scenery around the Great Lakes. But my heart is still in British Columbia, it can't be beat for variety and great scenery.

You bunch of godless, pinko-socialst, wealth-spreading commies!
