All parties have the same leftist agenda, just like the UK. Except the Canadians have to pander to the frogs, sorry, Les Franshais. Yes, we've had to adopt metrics here in the UK, but most people ignore it anyway (except the BBC) as it is totally incomprehensible. (For one thing, it's supposed to be based on decimal, but no one mentiones decimeters.) <br />I do believe someone in Canada should stand for Canada joining the US (sans Keybeck, of course) where then the cost of essentials like food and beer would be much lower for one thing, as labels wouldn't have to be printed in two languages, and secondly beer wouldn't be so expensive in Toronto. Did anyone mention the price of beer in Canada?Aled Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14373901334870700620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-49437990215408572652011-05-03T13:42:18.087-04:002011-05-03T13:42:18.087-04:00I went, but the bastards told me I had to be Canad...I went, but the bastards told me I had to be Canadian.

I voted during the day, getting trapped behind a retired person who didn't seem to realize they should have brought photo ID with them. :(Richard Wintlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14644765072275026087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-56606258445803397492011-05-02T17:22:48.359-04:002011-05-02T17:22:48.359-04:00It felt good to vote this morning!
