AmeriNZ 127 – All Things Canadian with Mark

Mark from “Slap Upside the Head” joins me today to talk about various Canadian things. We begin today talking about the Canadian elections last month. What happened, and what does it mean? What’s a “minority government”, and how does Canada end up with one? We talk a bit how parliamentary democracies work, and how that relates to a minority government in Canada. How did the GLBT communities fare? How did Canada end up with higher age of consent for GLBT people?

We also talk about standing up to homophobia and even about allowing comments on websites.
