When I hear atheist, I think of the belligerent, all religions are evil, there is definitely no god, and my way of thinking is the only way. I don't think that kind of person would go very far in politics in either country. An agnostic type who doesn't believe in god or any particular religions, but respects the beliefs of others would probably do fine in Canada. In the right circumstances, they might have a shot in the US too. .
