Posted this because I heard someone on the radio said that a PBS report quoted someone who claimed that Canadians had come down from Montreal to campaign for Brown. I had to see if it were true.
Turns out it was.
JENNIFER NASSOUR: We don't -- we don't know who the key party activists are. And I think that there's probably just a group of activists that have a label on them.
But I met people from different countries that were here to make phone calls and to knock on doors, to people from across the country, as far as Washington State, that came to Boston to help out. I think that it was just...different people.
GWEN IFILL: Did you say different countries? Really?
JENNIFER NASSOUR: Yes. We had actually -- I met a young man last night who came from Australia. I met another man who came from London. I met another two gentlemen that came from Montreal. So, people were here from all over the place.
And, actually, interestingly enough, the men that were here from Montreal came because they were so against the U.S. buying into any sort of health care plan right now. And they said, if you want to see socialized medicine, come to Canada. And, so, they were here wanting to see the history being made in Massachusetts.
It was the final caller to the Mark Levin show. I think he was from Nebraska or Oklahoma or somewhere like that.
