3 things about Canadian culture #1: all Canadian artists/writers/musicians, etc. are wounded by Harper's cuts. Not just francophones.

Meanwhile, back in Canadada...

Harper, not a huge fan of the arts, is lucky to be running in Canada. Here we have a multi-party system.  According to a CBC poll, 38% of Canadians would vote for the Conservatives if there was an election today. 28% would vote for the Liberals.  19% for the NDP, 8% for the Bloc + 7% for the Green party.  So 62% of Canadians would NOT be voting for the Conservatives but the Conservatives would win anyways.   One wonders why that 62% can't work in tandem to defeat the Conservatives.  How truly different are their platforms? (excluding the fed Blocs anti-fed stance)
