Everytime I saw it, I was reminded of what has become of the principles for which I thought our country was known.

Back on topic: My morning paper devoted an entire paragraph to an inside page regarding the election in Canada. That is as equally shameful as Fox getting it wrong.

And this is the bottom line. The idea that Canadian politics are somethying insignificant is symptomatic of the center-of-the-universe-itus that infects us. Canadian politics has a great deal to do with international poltics, as well as American economics, politics, and sociology.
