OH GOD ASK HIM. AND TELL US WHAT HE SAYS. I DEMAND IT.

Also, I'm hoping Stephen Harper might cry because Canadians like Obama better than him. This is because Obama is a celebrity and Stephen Harper is a robot with unruffable hair.
Don't worry Harper. Most leaders are feeling the same.

At least if Harper cried we'd know he's human. :D

Doesn't look like it!

I've been forgetting to post updates, haven't I?

Well, the Liberals kicked out their old leader, parliament reconvened on Monday, and now the Liberals are supporting it. It's kind of.. boring again, actually!

So polite! :D You know, Canadian Caesar wouldn't have been killed on the Senate floor - he would have just needed to provide reports.

Our new president (I can't tell you how wide that makes me grin) just seems to have that effect :D

ASK IT. ASK IT.

I WILL PRETTY MUCH DO ANYTHING YOU WANT IF YOU DO SO.

Also, don't worry: England is also boring. I want an election, damnit! I want to VOTE.

And Canada's government is no longer in crisis.
Damn! That was my go-to-story all December. No one believed me Canadians could be so dramatic!

I mean, it's good your government is working again--it's just not fun anymore D:

Also, I'm hoping Stephen Harper might cry because Canadians like Obama better than him.

Everything I've just said is taken back if this happens. DO IT HARPER. Canadians need to entertainment and drama! Think of Rick Mercer and all he could do with it!
