Worthless Canadian initiative? Writing about differences between America and Canada not so easy anymore

August 1, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

My latest at Taki’s Magazine:

Hell, even most Canadian “conservatives” are really only low-tax lefties who believe in “diversity” and gay “marriage.” But they hate political correctness, admire America, and love the armed forces, so our liberals call them names.

Even “right-wing” students dream about getting a government or Conservative Party job-for-life instead of starting their own business.

(Which is weird because Canada has less red tape and lower business taxes than you do, plus a more stable economy on account of our banks not giving mortgages to welfare bums.)

However, except for not realizing that our most famous “Rush” is a rock band—any “red state” American would feel pretty comfortable (if a bit fatter) in Calgary, Saskatchewan, and northern Ontario.
