Go Kathleen, Go Kathleen!

Last edited Fri Jun 13, 2014, 01:58 AM - Edit history (1)

I live in Alberta but I am so proud of the people of Ontario, Canada. They have just elected their first female Premier and to boot, their first gay Premier. It looks like she will end up with a Liberal majority government. I am so proud and envious!

Edited to add: Please look at Sid's posts below, in this thread, for wonderful pictures of tonight.

Was worried there for a time and I know you got the short end of the stick with the ACA, hope you chewed some rep's ears off and got things working in a more fair direction?

Listen to the Grouchy Old Pricks telling us about how Canada sucks because it is a "socialist" country, or a "marxist" country. Perhaps now they can get their needles unstuck from constantly whining about Russia.
