Wilson sent me a link to a good article about the legacy that Bush is leaving for the next president next year. With the economy, war on terror, human rights issues, illegal immigration, healthcare, environmental problems and climate change, the list of incredible blunders goes on and on. It’s going to get worse before it gets better.
What person in their right mind would want the job of President with this mess waiting for them? Say it with me folks, man it’s good to be Canadian. Sure we elected a boring Prime Minister, but really, you have to agree that boring is better than plain old stupid any day.
It IS good to be Canadian. Unfortunately, Canada and the U.S. are inextricably bound together on several levels, and when the U.S falls off the cliff they will invariably drag us down with them.
There’s your happy thought for the day.
Absolutely, they are our single largest trading partner, that goes without saying. But I am hoping that because our economy doesn’t have the incredible millstones around our neck that the American economy does (full scale war, sub-prime mortgage crisis, etc) I’m cautiously optimistic that things will be better here than in the States in the long run.
