This is an extremely perceptive and astute analysis.. However... what's interesting is that at about the same time as mark Steyn conceived these thoughts, another Canadian pundit came up with a very similar analysis also.

Canadian commentator Howard Galganov published some very similar views in his piece The Iraqi Affair - Maybe It's More Than Meets The Eye.

Worth a look.

Good Recommendation.
I would add for the purposes of illustration, that Canada is ruled by Ontario/Quebec, and the rest of the provinces are just along for the ride, without any counterbalancing power. Very similar to the unsatisfactory position that all of the EU countries find themselves in regarding control by France/Germany.
