You mean a one-party state, don't you?  It's really sad when we have no
effective political opposition.

Just because some (most?) Americans disagree with your politics, it
doesn't mean they have no common sense.

Please note that I agree that the "Super-DMCA" laws in the US *are*
stupid.  But you shouldn't extrapolate from those laws to assume
that Canada is more free than the US, or that its people have more
common sense.
