Today is a very special day, Feb. 29th only comes around once every 4 years. In fact, this may be a very special year…

Theres an old saying “When the United States sneezes, Canada catches a cold”. Our two countries are so intertwined and rely on each other, in good and bad times. I want the best for all the countries of the world but right now in particular my brother country the US is hurting, its dollar is weak, the sub prime mortgage disaster, the courageous men and women dying overseas in war. There seems to be no happy ending in sight…I do hope everything will be ok.

However, a collosus change is about to come to the US, its picking up steam and its momuntum appears to be unstoppable. The presidential candidate Barack Obama has captivated me with his vision and his hope for a better tomorrow. If elected he would be the first Black American President. He is a prime example of hope, courage and freedom. He confirmed that you should always pursue your dreams, you can overcome any obstacle in your way, dont ever let anyone tell you, you cant make it, Barack Obama you have truly inspired me.

Im sure everyone has now seen the Yes We Can video by will.i.am which has over 9 million views in total on Youtube, today the sequel has been released… check it out.

We Are the Ones.

Yes We Can.
