Canadians seem to care more about sports than Canada

If Only Canadians Can Have as Much Passion Over What’s Happening to Them as They do About Hockey
Excerpt:
How come Canadians can’t be this passionate and channel all that energy
into politics? I mean, it’s about their futures, for the love of gawd.
To me, it seems that they care more about what happens to their
favourite team and/or least favourite player than they do about
themselves, regarding the most important things; will I be able to
continue earning a living? Will I be able to access health care for my
family and myself? Will we become a nation of Evangelicals waiting
while they engineer the end times (wouldn’t it put it past those
wingnuts to do just that)? Will be able to retire? If we had at least
half that passion, we wouldn’t be living under such scary and uncertain
times, or at least, we wouldn’t allow our governments to ‘boil the
frog’, in turning Canada into a place we are starting to no longer
recognize.
