For anyone who ever thought that we in Canada just boringly watched the American cultural upheaval from the outside looking in, witness Vancouver mayor Tom Campbell doing his best impression of a southern Baptist. Full disclosure: I was born in 1971, but, student of pop culture that I am, this is utterly fascinating. I'll even give him a pass on his use of the word retarded, since that was the unfortunate term in use at that time. Truth be told, it was still in use as I was entering school in the mid-1970's. But as a counterculture statement, it is interesting.
