Dear Mr. Harper, I MISS TRUDEAU

I miss Trudeau. I’m sure I’m not alone, but at this moment in time it’s hard not to think about him. Canada seems to be stuck in a metaphorical political rut. No one takes us seriously, no one seems to want to really ‘hang’ around with us anymore and we hear those slanderous whispers drifting over our boarder from down south. When did we become the odd man out? When did people stop caring about Canada?
I think it all started with the conservatives. I’ll admit, Canada isn’t generally a scandalously interesting Country. We don’t have an Amsterdam or a Paris or a New York, but we did have the hopelessly liberal, anything goes attitude that used to draw in a few shocked viewers. Oh to remember the early days of the gay marriage bill, the leaders who weren’t afraid to flip people off and of course good old Trudeau’s close relationship with Fidel Castro. You have to admit that that was the golden era, nobody during that age was saying Canada who?
Unfortunately now we have Mr. Bobble head Harper, who instinctively agreed with many Bush policies and today still relishes in his conservativeness. This is terribly unhelpful to our off color Canadian image. We’re supposed to be the crazy leftists, the bleeding heart liberals that draw in those viewers and yet here we are once again with the stiff and terribly dull Harper in charge. What are we to do with a Prime Minister like that? There’s just nothing fun about him. Even his stiff hair refuses to let loose and have a good time; this is not a positive sign.
