I can see that. I mean, for as long as I've been old enough to understand "how things work" and "what things mean" your Republicans have been to the right of our Conservative Party of Canada and your Democrats have also been to the right of our Liberal Party of Canada.
Mind you, our Conservative Party is also moving to the right at a maddening/saddening pace - although not quite as maddening/saddening as your Republicans.
(By the way, I don't consider the Liberal Party to be Leftist at all. I consider them centrist.)
