I'd imagine most politicians at times hate certain things that make the
news, true or not. Part of the life I guess. Maybe it just seemed
a bigger deal in Canada because we (by reputation) tend to be a little
more polite about things like that.. Explain things without calling
people names.

Funny, I was just reading a book and they were talking about people
from few different countries and they mentioned that you can always
tell a Canadian because they are always polite and will hold a door
open for someone still 50 feet from the door..

That may be a slight exaggeraton but we do see a lot of it. It's
laughingly common for us to appologize to someone who ran into us
and more than once when watching traffic and seeing some driver not
slow down to let someone trying to enter a lane get in front of them
I've had someone near me say, Must be an American tourist..   B)
