I thought that Canada was the last bastion of free thought, devoid of influence from conservative and religious types like down here in "Jesusland"?

I'm shocked!

Our own Jesusland is Alberta where the current Conservative government is under attack by the far-right for not being conservatve enough They've even gotten help and funding from some folks down south (now your campaign is over). We tend to ignore the ranting from that province on most things.... unless it's good for a laugh... such as the infamous Stockwell Day iniative:

The leader of the Alliance Party (far-right) tried to pass an ammendment were it was only neccessary for 3% of the total population to vote in passing a referendum... a comedy show liked the idea so much, that a national referendum was prosposed by the show that the leader of the Alliance, Stockwell Day, officially have his first name changed to Doris.... and the show got double the votes needed according to the proposed ammendment to referendum rules.... needless to say the Alliance dropped the ammendment.
