US: Get out the vote!

In honor of our friends and pals to the south who are voting (for either McCain or Obama) in the US election today.

CANADA – DON’T VOTE!

You’d have to be living under a rock to not know that both Canada and the US are in the middle of some critical votes that will definitely impact our collective lives.  We’re in a uniquely Canadian election run of course and regardless of your political ideology, I’d like you to take a moment to observe an online viral campaign originating in the US.  Much of the same sentiments within this video apply up here in our great country, which is why I thought I’d share this video with you.  I don’t have stats at this moment, but I believe that voter apathy is even stronger in  our country than in the US.  Once again, this is an excellent example of a video going viral as we speak. Certainly the content, participants and timing all have an effect on the reach and overall effectiveness of this content, however, there’s a lot to learn from studying it.  Enjoy.

WARNING:  There are a few instances of swearing and use of the “F” word in this video, so if that offends you DON’T WATCH.   Oh and thanks to @creativesage on Twitter for bringing this video to my attention.
