A Message from NAL publisher Doug Draper
Unless you belong to one of those story book families whose members can cram themselves into the ‘little house on the prairie’ and have a nice warm time all weekend, Thanksgiving can be a trying time.
It is one of those mercifully few times of the year when families feel forced get together and are reminded why they are lucky that they can at least choose their friends.
So mixing a discussion about politics in with the turkey dressing could be all it takes to bust up the chairs and turn the table over. But it may be worth the chance if you are planning to vote for change in this federal election and can convince at least a few others in the family to join you.
Given what’s at stake in this election, give it a try and please don’t forget to pass the cranberry sauce.

Or “You’ll probably ruin Canada, but you may just save the dinner” for a time you don’t have to eat crow. You mean there are actually Canadians out there who would still vote Conservative after all the negative press and how-tos of getting Mr. Harper out of office? So, unless you’re ingesting with your eyes, please raise your veils and enjoy a great meal, in Thanksgiving and a salute to still the best country in the world.
