Canadian Politics: All Hail the Conservatives!

Last week, Canadian Heritage Minister, James Moore, nominated to that position in the hopes of mending fences with Québec's cultural scene, among others, failed a pop quiz where he was asked to identify not only Québec cultural icons, some of them internationally known, but also famous Anglo-Canadian artists.

If this is unacceptable for someone holding a cultural portfolio, his colleague, Federal Science Minister Gary Goodyear, wins with his unwillingness to aknowledge he believes in evolution.

All of this puts a new spin on a funny video done by some Québec artists during the last federal elections, which I humbly contributed to spread among Anglo-Canadian medias by adding subtitles...



I don't consider myself particularly intelligent, so it emphasize how frustrating it is to have idiots run my country.

Alberta is Not a Tory Stronghold Anymore.

A NDP candidate was elected in Alberta!!! Wow...just wow!

She won by just 400 voices!

For outsiders, Alberta is known as the heartland of the Conservative Party. Every electoral district in the province has been represented by Conservatives for years. This is, in my opinion, the most impressive victory of the campaign.

The Edmonton-Strathcona riding is where I lived when I was in Edmonton this summer. This place just got a bigger place in my heart!
