] Date Posted: 18:00:19 11/26/04 Fri In reply to: Steph (US) 's message, "I don't insist on it" on 16:48:53 11/26/04 Fri Australia has institutional and cultural ties with NZ, Canada and the UK which are of quite a different order from those with the USA. I find it hard to see how it would be possible to harmonise two political systems with such different views of the relationship between the legislative and executive functions of government. At heart, though, I think I would find it very difficult to get used to being part of a "United States of the Anglosphere". It just doesn't really appeal to me. And since a lot of Canadians seem to have strong feelings about having been invaded by the USA, I suspect it would be even harder for them.
