512...Barack Obama

"Obama fast becoming Canada's best friend; President's economic policies could put U.S. in tailspin" reads the headline in this morning's Vancouver Sun‏.

Barbara Jaffe writes that the man who we Canadians overwhelmingly wanted to be President of the United States may inadvertently be our very best friend. Just not for the reasons we thought he would be.

It is kind of ironic too, because what is happening is that Obamanomics equals big government and big government is not attractive to big business; in Canada the Conservatives and the latter stages of the Liberal regimes of Jean Chretien and Paul Martin, were parsing down our government footprint making the Great White North more attractive to investors.

Who'd have thunk it, eh?
