Canada != Canadian people

government is freakin out of it's mind and EVERYONE up here knows it. Attack our governemnt all you want, but don't go around thinking they represent us.

Does anyone think the U.S. government represents the American people? Less then half of those eligible to vote voted and only a quarter of those eligible to vote selected President Bush.

With rights come responsibilities. If someone's not going to vote, those of us who do get to make the decisions. By not bothering to show up, the nonvoters basically voted, "Whatever you guys want."
