Right or wrong, your average urban Canadian voter is more likely to equate responsible government and personal freedom as easy access to Day Care and Health Care then they are the right to an unregistered firearm in their hand and preventing the marriage of the common-law gay people living in the apartment 2 floors up.

Good comments. While there are definitely these types of differences between urban and rural, I think there are also some commonalities. I think in general, Canadians are more moderate in their views. Pro trade, balance between individual rights and responsibilities, willing to help others, placing an importance on infrastructure - transportation and communication - tolerance and fairness.
I think Canadians are driven more by the pocketbook than the prayerbook.
