Canadians reported long lines as polling stations opened for advance voting on Friday.

Advance polls will be open again 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. nationwide Saturday through Monday, with election day set for April 28.

Some voters at polling stations across the country told CBC News early Friday they were waiting upwards of two hours to cast their ballots.

"I vote all the time and I've never had to wait for very long, normally. This is going to be an hour apparently," said James Knight, who was voting at Ottawa City Hall.

1. We Canadians should thank our lucky stars we are

not in Republican/MAGAland and our elections still work. Our thoughts are with the USA too in these horrible times.

2. Your thoughts are kind and generous indeed,

for We The People of the US have collectively brought this shame on ourselves, and have earned the blame.

When I traveled in Canada last month, the Canadians that I met seemed reluctant to talk about the situation. My sense of it was that they were trying to spare me the embarrassment and shame of it. Such kindness and forbearance humbles me greatly.
