Will Canada send troops to Iraq? Will Canada become the 51st state? Will Canada ban homosexual acts? Will Canada become a religious state? Will Canadians subscribe to American-Style Health Care? Will Stephen Harper become Dubya's newest best friend?
Well, not quite.
The Conservatives (aka ultra right Republicans) have won the Canadian election, but only a minority victory. So, maybe few or none of these things will come to pass...
In other news, Toronto becomes the temporary gay marriage capital of the world......

Be sure not to be hit by the now-Canadian-supported American missile-defense system.....

Soon Canadians will learn the vital survival skills of combat as their gun violence rate increases, major corporations ride roughshod over laws and the environment and their personal freedoms will be stripped away one at a time in the nmae of "National Security".
Then Canada and America will have the most effective soldiers ever known- because the general populace will be too poor not to join the military, and so pissed at everything they'll kill whatever they can.

1. No, I think most of our allies are pulling their troops out anyway. 2. No, perhaps the 51st-55th, yeah, not all of your Provinces will count as states.. and you can keep Quebec. *L* 3. *shrugs* 4. It better be Evangelical or there could be an American Jihad. 5. NOOOOOO! Where would we repurchase our drugs from at a lower cost??!?!? 6. Who? You should have kept the last leader fellow, at least 1% of the American public knew who he was at least.

I actually didn't vote for this election. You've got Liberal Party scandals on the left side, and dislikeable Conservative Party agendas on the right side. And for some reason, I think Jack Layton should have stayed in Toronto as a municipal councillor.
I should keep my eyes peeled.... we've just became a much more tempting target for terrorism.

That sounds like a line from the old Adam west Batman show.

I'm with you.
I didn't vote either. I don't really care who runs the country, there going to do a crappy job of it anyways, just like the government before them.

Why? Apathy seems to be the only clear winner here.
