(V): I really think the media is the main reason behind it.It started on the right, but the left have decided to hit back just as hard , which is fair of course, but both sides should really bring it down to a dull roar for the sake of the country.Of course here in Canada there is division between the left and right(I always vote conservative, can't stand our Libs) but the discourse is nothing close between our divisions.A new station started a few years ago (dubbed Fox News North) It's even too extreme for most Canadian conservatives such as myself, and has many guest from Fox News , but it's audience is very small http://www.sunnewsnetwork.ca/
