It always amazes me that the far right in Canada still accepts universal, mostly-public health care as essential, and that the complaints about gun control here centre on the fact that the law they put in place doesn't work - very few people say no such law is needed.
How exactly has America managed to swallow its anti-leftist rhetoric enough to stomach having us as their next-door neighbour? It's really kind of strange.
I managed to find time on my mat leave to volunteer for the provincial election last fall. (Yes, I worked for the Liberal party. So sue me. I'm a teacher. Who was I supposed to vote for?) Try volunteering to deliver flyers or something door-to-door two or three times a week. There's something about a woman pushing a baby carriage that inspires trust, and I'm sure Rhys would love to get out.
