[Gay Marriage Plan: Sign of Sweeping Change in Canada ]
“There is a centrist mentality in Canada that translates into the political system not tolerating the Pat Buchanans nor the leftist equivalent,” Michel C. Auger, a political columnist for Le Journal de MontrĂ©al, said. “There is a unified fabric here that is a lot stronger on social issues than it seems to be in the United States.”
Great news analysis piece in the NYT today. It is amazing how two countries (US and Canada, of course) can be so close, so similar, and yet so strikingly different. I find myself more and more offended on a daily basis by the extremists (both left and right) here in the US. Maybe it’s time for some good old centrist living in the country of my ancestors. Yes, there are more Rushtons in Nova Scotia than Kellys in Dublin
