WHOA, Canada has a different government. I cannot believe that never occurred to me. I'm sorry, Canada! Mind you, we probably don't hear about Canadian politics over here because we think Canadians are sensible. Canadians are our favourite people, after Kiwis and before Poms. Americans... well, it's kind of a love-hate relationship. We think they're silly, they don't really know we exist. xD There's this saying over here - if you see something weird (usually on television but not always) and it makes ZERO sense and you think it's TOTALLY creepy... you go and complain about it to someone, and they'll be like: "Yeah, but they are American." And then you're like: "OH! They're AMERICAN! That explains it all. I understand now." xD Mind you, some places in Queensland are as bad as America. *shudder* They have SIGNS on the motorways telling you that abortion is bad. Really? Really?! I thought we were over that here. -_-

So if Bush was a terrible president and the Canadian guy now is also terrible... and England had that Blair guy who they all hated... so the Australian equal of them must be Howard. Gosh, he was a TERRIBLE MAN. He was PM for something like eleven years - my entire lifetime until about four years ago, I kid you not. And throughout those eleven years he made terrible choices, was very rude to everyone, and refused to apologise to the Stolen Generation. And pretty much the SECOND Rudd made PM that apology was the first thing he did. And now we have our first female PM and I DO. NOT. LIKE. HER. The deputy whatever it's called is way more awesome, but they won't let her be Prime Minister because she's a lesbian. DAMNIT!
