Happy Canada Day! Now Learn the Pledge of Allegience.


I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

One more time.

Got it? If you, my fellow Canadians, decide to give the Conservatives, and Mr. Harper in particular, one more turn in office (which is what it looks like you want to do based on recent polls, as summarized in last month’s National Post that puts Liberals at 32%, Conservatives at 31%, and the NDP at 28%, with the Liberals having the same slight lead they had before they lost the last election). Now, the doctor likes our Southern neighbours, but also likes that Canada has its own identity, which is one that it appears Harper is very likely to sell for what he believes is greater economic stability. So, fellow Canadians, before you elect Harper again, you better learn the pledge of allegiance. You could need it as early as next Canada day. So, before you move on to your Canada day festivities, say it with me one more time. (Third time’s the charm.)

And now, just like Northern LOLCat, you know it too!
