Oh Canada !! !! !! !! !! !!
Well to-night is going to be a miracle waiting to happen. As the world waits with bated breath for the outcome of the presidential election. I feel that a sense of euphoria has swept the consciousness of the American citizen. They have thrown off there cloak of disillusion and have decided to no longer live in the bowels of fear and deception. We all want to believe in our Governments but in the last decade there has been a decaying of trust. We as Canadians look at our political family as a collective rights and not individual rights. The structure of Canada has been to govern to all and support the social fabric that makes this country. Our society has made gains in womens rights, gay marriage, abortion, socialized health care, always respecting the Canadian Charter of Rights and Liberties .Issues that are hotly contested in United States are non issues in Canada. We are a society that has always looked at the person and not the colour, we have progressed and often Canada has been complimented for its role in World affairs as peace keepers. Gazing across the Canadian landscape we feel a wind of change blowing . The north to the south, east and west. The compass needle is spinning pointing towards the Potomac river. This is history in the making my mother says, destiny. In Canada we feel a nervous twinge hoping to be a witness in some small way to our sisters new suitor. Hands are reaching outstretched across the globe towards the New Continent. The people will have spoken and turn towards us to say " We did it " as tears of joy tumble from their cheeks, Obama the next President of the United States, it is 18:56 pm and I predict and say with joy it will be, and say with swelled emotion Oh Canada !
