Is Canada Heading For A Coalition Government?

For years I dreamed of a mighty progressive coalition that would unite to topple the increasingly sinister Stephen Harper.

And I will never forget how happy I was to see progressives of all colours marching together after the would be dictator prorogued Parliament.

Or forget how much I hoped it would encourage the left to unite. Finally. 

So although I'm voting for Justin Trudeau's Liberals, and believe he deserves another majority.

I could live with this.

Donald Trump and the Death of the Republican Party

The day has finally arrived. The nightmarish U.S. election campaign is finally over. 

Americans are voting at last.

While we wait to see whether the day will bring joy or an even worse nightmare. One that could kill us all.

I'll have some final thoughts about that in my next post.

But right now just want to wish all the decent people of America, our neighbours, our friends, the best of luck in their desperate struggle to stop the monstrous demagogue Donald Trump.
