Ya, that's right. I haven't written anything substantive about it yet because, to be frank, I'm having a tough time getting interested. I'm sure I'll be more into it soon when things get a more combattive. (I'm also working on some book reviews that are taking up a lot of time.) But for now, what's going on in Iraq seems to be a little more consequential. And, really, what is there to be interested in? Watching the fight between the three parties over who loves socialized medicine more? Over who will do more to expand official bilingualism faster? Over who will be the least anti-American, or the least anti-Iraq war? The Conservative Party is proposing a 25% tax cut -- sounds great --but it's only for the middle class! Resembles something the U.S. Democrats might propose. I know, I know, Harper and his people don't want to look too extreme because they can smell power and are thus running to the centre. So all this makes sense strategically.
But at what cost?
