Election Time for the Great White North

Paul MartinPerhaps no longer will Canada be held in the strangle-hold of a Liberal dictatorship. Canadians will be treated Sunday May 23rd to a democratic delight denied them for over a decade after Paul Martin asks the Governor-General to dissolve Parliament - the first election in over a decade that won't be a foregone conclusion.
