Okay, so I'm just a little rattled at this whole breakdown of democracy that is going on in Canada... not exactly what is needed during this economic turmoil. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, let me set the stage:
Back in October, Canada had an election, and we re-elected a Conservative minority gov't. Now here we are in December and the Conservatives were nearly ousted by a Liberal and New Democratic Party coalition. However, the Governor General has suspended parliment until the end of January... leaving the country in a bit of stupor. Many people were pissed about the coalition, but I don't imagine that this situation is going to make things better. And who knows, we could be in for another election as early as the summer.
Just a note, this is the perfect chance for America to strike (but don't let Bush see that with only like 50 days left, he might actually do it. :tongue: )
