Perhaps all this will lead to a new "Canadian Spring", a veritable Renaissance of the whole concept of a statist utopia. I can see it now, all the distraught little statist sociopaths emigrating up to be welcomed into the micro-aggression free bosum of dear old Canada. Think of the potential, all the music festivals, all the drum circles, all within the context of Canadian enlightenment on how they dumped on their indigenous peoples, but they're oh-so morally superior because they didn't have enough Mounties to actually kill them.  Quick, someone embed the song "Beds are Burning", I'd do it if I knew how...

Scranton- old Joe "just get a double barreled shotgun and all will be well" Biden's hometown. Glad to see him go with Barracks Bag Boy O'Bammy-

Let's say, for the sake of argument, you're correct, James. I'll take your predictions any day for the way you called it! Kingsley As a fellow Canadian, I feel your pain and do not understand why you tolerate these foreigners (Americans) who give you only derision and abuse, not acknowledging your wisdom. They have abandoned the utopia of Canadian style unlimited taxation and micro-regulation for the hardscrabble life of self determination and freedom. Soon they will learn. However, I note the Leonard Cohen has passed away, a close associate of yours, I am sure. I note that he is being (for all his shortcomings) lionized, as is typical for deceased people. SO, here is Your opportunity to achieve sainthood, by emulating your friend Leonard. Then those louts will remember you fondly. A Fellow CAnadian.

Yikes?
Instead of the ole write off, I think King should just step outside and see if the roof is burning. Chances are it'll be just fine, and he can feel a renewed confidence that all is well with the world, as he counseled so many times to others. Before the sky is falling election.
But hey, the new guy doesn't seem to be going squishy lib as his new staff starts to take shape. Maybe he'll get different advice than a vanjones, cassunstein or holder might tell a prez during a cig break on the back nine. Shouldn't we be planning 'the holidays' in Hawaii around this time?

Man, and to think I thought Canadians were lacking a sense of humor.
BTW, I've actually met many Canadians, my father ran a Trade Association of farm equipment wholesalers, (FEWA) which had close association with the manufacturers association. (FEMA). Many of the members of both are Canadian. So, I know you all don't think like King.
I personally consider my opinions on your politics to be irrelevant, it would be megalomaniacal to think otherwise.

Ken, Canadians run the humour business down south. It's one of the few things we are good at.
Also, why would you even bother to have opinions on our politics....they are so inconsequential to anyone living outside our country.

I was lucky, in that I tried to pay attention to all sources. And while I found oldstarfire's post exceedingly funny, at yours and Leonard's expense, I do wish for you many more years of irritating the hell out of us here on Doublegun!
