I feel like we as Canadians have just woken up from a 10 year long fucking nightmare. Seriously. This week felt different from weeks past... There is a relatively new fad overseas, particularly in Europe. It is called 'democracy'. It seems it has come to this continent for the first time. The Liberals are in power, cheap gas, new Jurassic Park and Star Wars movies, a North American economy slowing dragging itself out of recession, a Clinton and Bush viaing for the Whitehouse. It feels like the 90s are back!
I gained a lot of faith in our country and our people in this campaign. When faced with divisive politics, fear-mongering and misinformation, we stood up and slapped that nonsense out of our government. That racist shit don't fly in Canada!! We made a bold decision and chose a positive message. I've never been more proud of Canadians than I was earlier this week! We don't tolerate bigotry and racism here. We are proud multicultural people from every walk of life. A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian.
