This "values" arguement won't work in Western Canada including Vancouver. At least in Vancouver they are socialists, but not anti "everything that seems American." Atlantic Canada doesn't count because they vote for who will bribe them the most. Toronto and the GTA is the target of this values arguement. Many, many immigrants in Toronto (nearing 50% of the population of Toronto) hate the US. Many were rejected by US Immigration. Many are socialists, such as many Eastern Europeans and many British Immigrants who "fled" the Thatcher Years.
One-Tier Health Care is primarily an Ontario concern.
I am afraid Martin did the math and knows he can win on the Anti-American platform.

Canadians are the stupidest, pettiest lot of people. George Bush has NOTHING to do with our most prevalent issues and problems - yet this works on Canadians. For all the crow about wanting to stop negative campaigning here's why it continues - because it works. Ontarions were scared off of Harper at the last minute last summer. Personally, I don't watch CTV or CBC and change my mind like the wind every time a politician says something. I made up my mind LOOONG ago, by paying attention to the issues that matter.

Atlantic Canada still wants to give 44% of their vote to the Liberals. You people are hopeless.

I don't understand why a conservative party can only muster 30% of the popular vote in this country. It's not even the fiscal and social conservative party it was in the beginning of the Reform years. Not as red as the Red Tory party, but it is watered down to make it more palatable to socialist Canada. And it's still not good enough. Is it that the CP wants to stop the gravy train to the Ontario auto industry? Maybe wants a Canada for all Canadians - not just Ontario and the teat sucking maritimes?
