Americans are much more political then us Canadians. I can't get over the blogging that's done about the democratic convention. The main reason Canadians watch the liberal convention is to come up with good material for their stand-up. NDP conventions could be held in a condo.

Here in Canada you are considered politically informed if you watch the air farce, or this hour has 22 minutes. And we learn about foreign affairs from the simpsons.

Of course, there's a reason for this. For one, we're insignificant and nobody really gives a damn what we think. For two, you just can't take our leaders very seriously. I think this clip of our former prime minister sums up rather well what I mean.
