As a Canadian I've always found it weird (and worrisome to some extent) that the two dominating political parties in America go all the way up from the Presidency to all the way down to municipal politics. I mean the term "conservative mayor" is pretty much unheard of in terms of party lines.
- ur-whale 5y agoIf only that was the only weird thing about American politics.
- ramraj07 5y agoAll fine and dandy but you do see the irony of a Canadian showing American problems with legislation affecting broadBand speeds right? Canada has one of the shittiest broadband scenes of any developed country! And it probably ties directly to the systemic problems Canada faces, just like the US and every other country does. No place is heaven, only that most developed countries put in sufficient social nets before the internet came so they're more livable than the US.

- TeeMassive 5y agoYes, he can be conservative as in the political philosophy, but not in the sense of being a member of the Conservative Party of Canada.
