#3  Obama's a bit too far to the right to suit most Canadians. We'd prefer someone a little bit more leftish . . . and nice.

#2  Uh-oh. The last time a country's most popular politician was the charismatic guy from the neighboring country, and the two countries mostly spoke the same language & shared a common culture, the Anschluss wasn't too far into the future.

It's not as if the nutroots' "Greater Canada/Jesusland" fantasies of early 2005 weren't a species of irredentism, albeit a rather exotic example thereof.
