Canada in Crisis!

** The video looping is an issue I missed during the editing. It's a screw-up on my part, because you shouldn't edit while half-asleep.**

Right now in Canada, the Conservative Party is possibly going to be ousted by a coalition of the other political parties. Our Prime Minister is about to ask the Governor General to suspend parliament for a month and a half in order to avoid a vote of no confidence. It's crazy!

Why is the video twice in a row?

Because apparently it's not a good idea to edit while you're half-asleep.

We need more education. People need to be taught that our political system is NOT the American one. When you vote for your MP, you do give him/her/it the permission to do what the Liberals and NDP are doing right now. This is not going against the people's vote/will. This is going against the people's misconceptions. Big difference.

Well, it looks like our GG is a wimp. She's gone ahead and told Harper he can hold off on his confidence motion until January. This is so stupid. We'll be right back in the same boat again, except that Harper will have time to paint the Quebecois as evil Separatists who planned the whole thing to split up the country. And nothing will be done about the economy until then. This is so stupid.

It's good that Canadians have the ability to kick out the PM if he's doing a shitty job. If we had Bush we could've got rid of him.

Nicely put! It's frustrating, I think what we need to change is to make the party with the majority of votes in a minority government unable to call a new election until the regularily appointed time, and to somehow change the vote of no confidence so that it can't be abused. Hopefully this will make the minority govenrment focus more on getting things done than getting ready for the next election every six months.

Anyway thanks for the video!

What song is that at the start?

You do realize that the Canadian economy would drop because of that right?
