To me, it's like saying.. "Uh, duh... they both need oxygen. They're totes the same."
Oh, healthcare's the same. Yeah, great. We should be the same fucking country then, let's go celebrate.
No. People in Winnipeg are left-wing and prairie folk. People in Minneapolis are the same. Neither would have much time for a flaming homosexual from Cabbagetown, and both would be uncomfortable and react politely when dealing with a Reform/Republican idiot from further west.
