Everybody in Canada is a special interest group.
I understand where you are coming from, and Canada could be taken over by the US if they feel the urge.
I think the special interest groups are more powerful in Australia although I could be wrong. Prices for pbooks never mind ebooks are unpleasantly high in Australia AFAIK as well as prices in many other areas.
Canadian pragmatism is possibly founded on the premise that most Americans don't want to admit we don't all live in igloos and certainly don't want to deal with the Quebecois.
