So I won�t get into the particular issues of this election, and bore you all with details of the proposed changes to whale oil tariffs, and harsher sentences for polar bears and so on. What I wanted to do here is explain some of the differences between the Canadian and American electoral process, and to helpfully highlight some of the ways ours is so much vastly superior to yours.
