Dear Mr Sanders, we in the Great White North have been curious spectators of your noble efforts to save the American people from runaway capitalism. In the advent that our lovely neighbours to the South do not realize how incredible lucky they are, and that you do not manage to secure the nomination for the Democratic Party, we over here in Canada have the perfect consolation prize for you: the leadership of our very own democratic socialist party, the National Democratic Party. Although most of us are quite satisfied with our current Prime Minister, we do believe that healthy competition between our politicians can only benefit our maple syrup-loving nation. Here in Canada, you will have your workload much reduced: we after all already have free health care, we do not spend trillions of dollars waging useless wars, and the issue of guns here is as relevant as the presence of the Maple Leafs in the NHL. Do not be fooled however, you will still have a few challenges; although university is far less expensive on this side of the border, it is not quite cheap, and your mission, should you choose to accept it, will be to make it free. You might also have to fight off a re-surging annexation movement in Vermont, where the desire to become Canada 11th province will only be fueled by your arrival. Understandable. All things considered, I believe it’s a no-brainer for Bernie Sanders to run for the leadership of the NDP. If he’s not elected in the US, it would be a waste for his talent and general goodwill to go untapped. Please sign the petition to convince this great man to join Canada’s political landscape.
