The Canadian Broadcasting Corp. news network is carrying the debate, tonight.

With a follow up show, too. I kind of cringe, thinking about our Canadian neighbors witnessing the ridiculousness of Trump, but I definitely understand their interest.

to. We have it easy here in canada. Competition and coveting power are not as strong here. And you guys did things like fought the cold war directly that we did not have to do. We just hang out under your umbrella. I have no doubt Hillary will continue on Obama's policies and do it well. And the GOP, out of power, will not learn anything because they are like that. The GOP establishment will continue the low tax and no regulations policies and so the GOP will crumble and fall apart. The pendulum is swinging back towards a more liberal USA.
