"So, basically Canadian politics is all one big inside joke?!"
Yes, through the eccentric instruction of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
catlein, I have come to the conclusion that Canadian politics is like one big inside joke. Since more than half the laws aren't actually written down and are more an intuitive thing, if you don't know any historical context of Canada then you won't understand their politics one bit. People will refer to propositions that aren't actually listed in the consitution(s), but are more or less followed by most of the provinces. True, this is all insanely confusing for outsiders, but in retrospect it's what makes Canada so awesome.
I saw this written on the wall of a bathroom today and I just had to write it down. It's so...I don't know.
Alarm bells went off
When you said your heart still sang
When you're with me.
Please forgive me;
I don't hear the music anymore.
