Oh, there was some attempt to provoke me in that post? Sorry surfer, I didn't notice.

I'm sorry however, as I can't take anyone who pretends that American elections are less corrupt than the Canadian ones seriously. Come on surfer, your president was't even elected by the people, he was appointed by the SUPREME COURT!

2000 - election map - USA


It seems like the no man's lands voted bush (Al Gore = Bush + 330 000).
Corruption ? no, democracy
There is still too much work in USA to focus on Canada.

As for Canada, one fewer Republican would make us crazy left-wing Canucks a lot happier and more prosperous...but not you. Give us Ashcroft's head anyday!

Baron, I thought you might like this. And you said Florida was a mess! HA. Because you are liberal and you allow everyone else to make decisions for you, before you know it, it will be your head on a plate (I would miss you).

Since you guys are dominantly populated with people of French ancestory, will Canada be asking President Bush to globalize his tax cut policy?

Enjoy the article.

"Dear Citizens:
Please read this.
We in Canada have a very serious problem with corruption in our voting process .It has been going on since before 1969.
We have a very old voting system that is seiously flawed. First, it has to be understood how a voting station works. Our polling stations are manned by volunteer witnesses from the different represented parties, all activities, and ballot counting is witnessed by them. When the polling station closes, the witnesses manually count all ballots for each riding. Then the results are reported by telephone to the Solicitor Generals office in Ottawa. At which time the solicitor general can enter any vote results he or she feels like entering, as there are no witnesses present for this process. In Canada, there is no way to verify those results. As all ballots are blank. The ballots are useless once the witnesses leave the polling stations. There is no way to verify the accuracy of the information that the solicitor enters in the computer bank. We have no safe guards against the corruption of our vote results. Most corruption will occur in highly populated areas. Since these activities will likely not be noticed.
It is to be understood that if even the smallest possibility for vote corruption exists. Then all possible safe guards should be put in place for the witnesses, to eliminate it.
I suggest that we put into place a system where all ballots have a unique UPC bar code on the backside. Then each polling station would be allotted a predetermined number of ballots. The location of each and every ballot would be accounted for, through the whole voting process. The ballots would randomly be given out to voters at each polling station. At the end of the day the used and unused ballots could be counted manually as well as with a computerized counting machine (computer). All activities need to be monitored by the volunteer (public) witnesses. The ballots will still need to be counted manually. In this way, all ballots will be accounted for in the whole country. To further safeguard, each and every volunteer will be given a printed signed copy of the results, to keep. So that results can be collaborated in the future by the volunteers at an on line site or manually through public records. There will also be other security safe guards put in place to ensure that the possibility for corruption never exists again.
Note; The chief reporting electoral officer should have no authority to do any certifying of vote results without public witnesses from the represented parties being present to witness his certification activities…
Our votes need to be protected. Our democracy starts at the polling stations on the day we vote. Lets make sure it does not stop there!
I AM A PROUD AND FREE CANADIAN…
Sincerely, Mr. Daniel Jude Towsey [email protected] "

I suggest you read it for yourself.

The crime rate isn't that low in Canada. It's just waaaaay too high in the States.....probably because everybody's American.

Yes, it's from a well-known news source. No, I don't know which one. How do I know? The General Clark campaign team records certain interviews/clips/debates/smiles/snickers/grins/frowns etc etc etc that are shown on TV of some of the other democrats in the running. How do I know? My brother is running the campaign. How do I know it's not photoshopped? My brother sent it to me, said it came up during an interview and they paused it just so on the screen that it looked like Dean was flicking off the camera. If they photoshopped it he would have said 'hey look what we did with photoshop'. Is this funny anymore? No, you've killed it eggplant. Dang.
