Deadlocked government is a good thing. It prevents bad policy from running rampant and guarantees what does pass was done so with consensus.

Hehe, we might have been at one point, but we are now the self-styled 'cultural mosaic' of the world! We've got a very diverse mix of people up here, and at least at my university, white people aren't in the majority alot of the time.
It was actually a real culture shock my first year - learning about multiculturalism in school just doesn't compare to experiencing it day-to-day in the flesh.
