Oh I understand about the government size... still they go into areas that do not need gong into... that grows unnecessary appendages for unnecessary jobs at unnecessary cost (my fiscal conservative / libertarian side) :O)

I guess that the liberal/conservative issue is the definition of each.. Seems pretty bleak that country can have only two thought patterns / value systems...

So no one in the US simply holds their nose and votes a certain way over a key issue ? God knows I've done that before.. I'm not unique by any means in that for sure.

We have recently decimated the most favoured Liberal party federally.. and years back we utterly destroyed the then Conservative party ... The current Conservative party is a blend of a right wing (for Canada) grassroots western regional party and the ashes of the old Conservative party (to make it palatable to us easterners)
Also why I find it odd is that growing up in Quebec I spent a lot of time in upstate New York, Vermont and Maine... Never seemed like a huge transition.. OTOH it was culture shock when I left Montreal and moved to Toronto.. Took many years to acclimatize.. and some things will never sit quite right..
