Just before you get tooooo excited about a Conservative government in Canada you should know a few things.

1. It's a minority government, meaning the three other opposition parties could force another election if they wanted to.

2. The Conservatives got about 37% of the vote. The rest went to centre and left wing parties.

3. Conservatives up here are divided into two main camps. Alberta Conservatives who you would consider to be moderate Republicans and "Red Tories" who would be slightly right of Clinton.

4. Most of our politicians (right and left) have admitted to inhaling at least once.

We're not really that excited about going to Canada, Simon, it was mainly just a joke. In fact, unless our friends in the Great White North stop trying to ban free speech, we'd be a little leery of moving up there. We'll be happy in this country even if the candidate we favor loses.

You better watch out for the media...you've got 5+ years of history easily accessible for the lazy researchers.

"Back in 2004, Brian the Comic Strip Writer..."

That would be awesome, Leif! We've always wanted a nickname. And while "Brian the Comic Strip Writer" is a little unwieldy, it could finally give us enough name recognition to actually make it to the big time... you know, like to Congress.

...and if you are an engineer (scroll to last letter) you believe that the glass is twice as large as it needs to be. So, the finance committee will eventually cut your budget accordingly, so good luck providing enough capacity next fiscal year.
