Hey, in case you haven't noticed up here in Canada we have very few choices on who to elect, just like the U.S.: It's dumb or dumber.

Hey buddy, you're preaching to the choir. It makes me sick that Bush is our leader. He has not done a single positive thing for this country. It's been one disaster after another.
That being said, we didn't elect him. We do not have real democracy down here anymore. The exit pools gave Kerry a clear win in 2004, this proves that we're at least trying to do better. If we had democracy George Bush would not be our president. The right controls the fucking voting machines, we have no chance of regaining democracy until our economy collapses completely and there's nothing left for them to steal.
That's why I'm wondering, since Canadians have had a front row seat for our disaster, why they'd go out and willingly subject themselves to the same thing. They still have democracy, at least for now. My plan was to move to Toronto once it got too bad down here. Now where the fuck am I supposed to go??!!
