I think the word liberal means different things in the US and Canada. And to tell the truth, there's been times when I didn't like the Liberal Party's platform or leader and I sat out elections. They've been known, on occasion, to get above themselves. I'd never vote for the NDP, they're too socialist, and I'd rather have a sister in a whorehouse than a brother in the Conservative Party.
i've completely given up voting for Democrats or Republicans .. .except in local elections where party doesn't matter that much, if at all.
I don't know what the differences in liberalism between here and there are... but I do know liberals ( and conservatives for that matter) change the definitions to suit their whims over the years.
in any event, i'm solid with anyone, liberal, conservative, or otherwise, who supports and defends individual rights... I don't like selective support, or outright disrespect of those rights.
