Lets hope the law is shot down and the police get back to enforcing all the laws that existed before May 18th and that they do so with great enthusiasm.

Bill, you mean like the laws controlling public expenses and the selection of public contractors? Maybe the laws regarding banking, or the natural laws about what can and can’t be done to the environment? Our current regime(s) are basically lawless, so I don’t know what kind of legal utopia you want to ‘return’ to. Ignorance might be bliss, but you can’t “go home” to it once you’ve been around the block.

All the laws before May 18th are still valid after May 18th
An American Who Stumbled Upon This 18:07 on 2012/06/12 Permalink
This has little relevance to your respective political discussions, however, I couldn’t help but observe how civil and, for the most part, error-free are the comments are on here. It is so vastly different from reading the comment section of any American blog/newssite. Y’all are a well-educated lot. Yeeehaaa. Um, sorry redneck humor. Sigh. You can take the American to civilization, but, you can’t civilize him. Anyway, you folks have a wonderful country. Don’t destroy it by mirroring our right-wing policies.

Thank you, weary traveller. If you want to see how stupid Canadians can be, go check out our national broadcaster, the CBC. Comments on cbc.ca are just as reactionary and misinformed as anything you’d expect from your brethren in Yanquistan. :)

please ignore the hate. We Canadians are proud of our CBC, just like i’m sure many Americans are proud of the great work NPR and PBS do on a daily basis.
Journalism shouldn’t be a for-profit enterprise, case closed.

I wasn’t talking about the journalism so much as the comments associated with each article, although the CBC seems to have increasingly conservative slant as of late, at least as far as certain issues like the student movement in Quebec are concerned.
