…but for entirely non-SWPL reasons. Fors Clavigera reminds us that an entire federal Canadian election can take only 38 days. Sure, it could be that the Prime Minister is calling an election for reasons of “political manipulation”—I honestly have no idea. But not even a month and a half will pass before it's over. Sounds wonderful to me.
If the states are the laboratories of democracy, why don't we try to switch one over to a parliament? Just to see how it works? C'mon, Mayor McCrory, this is the issue you've been waiting for!
(Also, the sunset over the UNC campus is stunning right now: a beautiful soft Turner sort of effect, and I don't care if it's a bad Turner. Industrial, of course, with the cranes of the never-ending construction, and the tall utilitarian science buildings…)
