We have enough problems in Canada without importing a toxic culture war and mindlessly polarized politics. Turn off the friggin' Daily Show and spend a bit of time learning about what's actually happening in Canada.

Personally, I'm not all that interested in American politics. Especially the partisan, day-to-day gotcha stuff that dominates the headlines. I'm more interested in American history. I'll enjoy reading about this campaign 20 years from now once the heat has cooled and we have some perspective on it.
