Candian Politics

Wouldn't it be great if the Canadian political scene was exciting?

Watching Barack Obama's inaugaration made me think that our system can be pretty lame. Who actually know anything about how Prime Ministers are sworn in.

What has Harper been up to lately? He doesn't want you to know. His office tries to kept his every move secret. Not because he's doing bad things, but because he's got nothing great to say.

Do our party leaders inspire us to greatness? Do they have a vision for Canada? Or are they just doing a job. Leaders must lead, excite, and help bring the best out of those they lead.

That's what made people like Kennedy and Trudeau great.

President Obama seems to have reignited this spirit in people. Can it happen again in Canada?
