Over the years Canada has given the United States hockey, Labor Day, and Michael J. Fox, among other things. The relationship has been very strong with our northern neighbor. Now there may be a new import, straight out of NASCAR.

On the Canadian NASCAR circuit a new sponsor has joined Whitlock Motor Sports, and driver Pierre Bourque. It’s none other than the Tory political party. It’s a move that is drawing criticism and attention in all directions.

In Canada, NASCAR is loved by 24% of the population, not nearly the growth that it enjoys in America. Still fans of the sport are conservative and liberal alike. If this works and draws significant attention to the party, can you doubt it will hit America too.

Imagine that if you will. The Republican car, or the Barak Obama car. Now those would be different. I think it would definitely catch attention. Especially if the driver was a winning one. Though I don’t think I’d like to see the Hillary Clinton car taking a victory lap ever.

So what do you think? What party should sponsor a car, if any? Whose name would you like to see taking laps?
