Sigh....

I truly hope everything goes right with Canadian election on Monday and Justin wins. Doesn’t seem like anyone else gives a damn about it right now.

I am also hoping Trudeau wins. It would be a great disappointment otherwise.

I live & work in Seattle. My beloved next-door cube mate has been talking endlessly about the Canadian election. He's like a crazed football fan on the subject, or a child looking forward to Christmas. He's not Canadian, just loves elections. He took Monday off to follow the returns & media updates.

You may think I'm joking, but I am absolutely not.

Best wishes for a high turnout & results that defy global trends!

Thanks everyone and I hope to see the back end soon of that Russian asset you have in the White House. 🥰

For the first time in my life, I am probably going to mark my ballot as "None of the above".

Still, our political problems are as nothing compared to south of the border....
