Well, it’s a good thing that Harper has a minority. It’s a good thing that the Liberal party is looking for ‘renewal’. But it’s a bad thing that I’m more excited about the election in America.

I’m almost giddy that the US might have a black president. Named Obama. Wow. I really never thought I’d see the day.

And I honestly always thought that Canada would have a diverse Prime Minister before the States would have a black president. I honestly did. I honestly believe that the vast majority of Canadians would vote for a person of colour if they felt they would make a good Prime Minister. Am I naive? I don’t think so. I think deep down, we’re a good people, and we know what’s right.

I really wish that there were some serious contenders for the diverse Prime Minister spot, but I don’t see any.

Hell, I think that Sheila Copps should have stuck it out and run for leader, I think she would have done better than Dion, that’s for sure!
