I also think that the term liberal is ok, but I'd definitely despise being called a democrat (which I'd assume most people would call me if i were in the states).
You never know, they might call you anything. Being a Democrat most of my life (I'm an independent, whatever that means) I don't feel it's a badge of dishoner. In fact I'd say lately with all the scandal in the repube party they are the more dishonorable party. Why Canadians think they have a say in our politics is beyond me. You don't see americans posting opinions about your politics. I'd say, look to your own government and keep them as honest as you can before you end up with this mess we have down here.
