Oh Canada! Oh Canada! God shed his grace on thee...

From an article about American writing to Canadian MPs complaining about marriage rights:

An American citizen married to a Canadian, Wyman has lived in London, Ont., for 33 years and has been writing letters for weeks to gay marriage supporters in Parliament.

"Sometimes the government needs to be told what to do," Wyman said from Cleveland, where she has been dealing with a family illness.

"The United States is the great nation it is because of its moral code. Canada isn't even considered a Christian nation anymore and they seem OK with that. It's more of a melting pot. That doesn't make any sense to me."

Any more of our trampled and discarded ideals you guys wanna adopt?

Words just fail me. From where I'm sitting it's Canada upholding the values our country claims to espouse.

Sigh.

Y'know, if I ever feel the need to Get Out Of Europe, Fast (increasingly unlikely, but you never know), my first destination for emigration would be Canada.

A decade ago it would have been the United States. No more.
