A Certain Kind of Silence


Of late, I have sensed a certain emptiness of feeling. Was it the sense of a vast solitary expanse of geography just beyond the huddled confines of urbanism? I couldn't quite put my finger on it; and then, idling in a line of traffic it suddenly hit me : there are no bumper stickers in Canada!

What a strange place where everyone keeps his opinions to himself. It makes the place strangely silent
