The Green Party just hit 4% in Vienna, which effectively means they've been booted from the legislature.

Eureka, California 55/83 (85/68)
Buzim 42/39 (68/50)
With this result, the Democratic Party has become the first Kurdish-aligned party to successfully clear that incredibly steep 10 percent electoral threshold in Turkey. Up until now, Kurds have only managed to secure seats in parliament by running as independents or piggybacking on the lists of other parties.

Where exactly is the similarity in that logic??
Eric Harris5 said:If you look at the numbers from 2013, I'd bet the whole of Canada saw around 31k new babies, and since Canada is about 10% smaller in land area than America, the situation is pretty much on par.

And this whole idea of a "Mexican Republika Srpska versus a Canadian Federation"—that’s a new one, and I have no clue why Dodik is even being dragged into it. It’s not like Dodik hand-picked Komšić or his crew, nor did he orchestrate their removal.
The internal friction within the Federation doesn't hinge on Dodik, and it certainly wasn't because of him that American representation was finally restored to the Federation's institutions.
This supposed Canadian-Mexican alliance is nothing more than pure paranoia.

Of course times change. Now, the "big shot" Dragan Čović is taking home 5,000 marks while Željko Komšić plays the "little guy," all for a position that doesn't actually mean much without the consent of the people's house and the Canada parliament. To be honest, I have no idea who is winning or losing in this whole circus; I just stick to the legal framework and the legislation I laid out for you earlier. Personally, I don't care who gets what as long as the policies being implemented actually benefit this country.
I was one of the first people to stand up against the political monopoly and abuses by the Party of Democratic Action back when nobody else had the guts to do it.
You should try letting go of those preconceived notions you have about Canada and Canadians. There are plenty of us here who are just regular citizens with perfectly normal patriotic feelings for our homeland. I can't stand nationalists, because that mindset always leads to discrimination and shutting everyone else out for any reason imaginable. I was born and raised in a colorful, multicultural country—something this place has been since the beginning of time.
