Yup. We are a social democracy and we're proud of that. The problem is the anti-'red' creep that some of us have adopted from America. Seems like we enjoy the healthcare, CPP, dental benefits, etc that the "social" part gives us, but many want the ability to deny that to people they don't like (often those with darker skin tones than us).

I believe in democracy, but I have a difficult time supporting those who would do harm to my neighbours by denying them the safeguards I enjoy.
