Canadians know a lot more about what's going on south of the border than what's actually effecting them here. A lot of that has to do with American TV being way better than Canadian TV.. But they seem To care more about it.. Ask them about issues in the states and they have answers, ask them about stuff going on right here.. And they don't know. I only talk politics about where I can actually vote to try to help or change things, and even then, I'm pretty relaxed about it.. So I don't bother commenting too much on political forums. Not that I am misinformed it just seems to be a big merry go round for me. However, discussing websites about politics is fair game.
