Something is happening in Canada, which may result in a fundamental shift in the political makeup of the Canadian Parliament. The governing body remained deadlocked today, as they again voted to shut down early. The opposition is gathering support for a vote of no confidence, and it is believed that defeating the budget would result in the fall of the current administration (Sound like Episode I to anyone else or what?).
Whatever else you might say about Canada's banana republic politics, they do it so politely. And with very little litter.
Seriously. This is pretty screwed up for a G-7 nation. When Russia no longer looks like the charity case in the body, you're in trouble. And Canada doesn't have nukes.
