#1 Could it be due in part to ~~wolves~~ bears at the far northern door?

#2 Probably has more to do with the fact that the leader of the Liberal party bears an uncanny resemblance to a short-sighted rodent.

#3 Up here in Canada too many people still believe in the cradle-to-grave nanny state and that the evil conservatives have a 'hidden agenda'. The Conservatives are ahead in the polls but they still have only about 40% support. The remaining 60% is split between the 4 socialist parties, the most popular of them being the Liberals. The main reason why the Conservatives are ahead of the Liberals (the 'natural governing party') is that the Liberal leader is a complete wanker. However in the system we have here, one can still win the majority of the seats in the Parliment with less than 50% of the popular vote. Typically you need 40% or better to do so.
