I was referring more to their welfare state, rather than the politicians. It is more blanket than it is here, for example, you are not allowed to buy private heath services if the government supplies them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_programs_in_Canada |

 That wasn't my source though, that opinion came from listening to loads of podcasts from an English philosopher who lives in Canada. Not having lived there myself, it could be complete bollocks of course. |

I'm sorry I just et pissed off with people bandying around the word socialist, as you're continuing to do, without having the first fucking clue what it means. Welfare state does not equal socialist. Look the word up in a dictionary FFS. |

So the welfare state is not a socialist construct then, Lumps? Forgive me, it must belong to capitalism and the free market instead. On the blob at the moment? |

The same Housemartins who sold themselves as Hulls finest socialists but apaprt from the drummer turned out to be good old fashioned Southern capitalists.
