It's YOU who needs to get the facts straight. I don't think you even know what fascism is. If you think Rumsfeld and Cheney are fascists, it's not even worth discussing this. The closest to a "popular" fascist in USA right now is probably Ann Coulter (she is either a fascist or quasi-fascist).

Canada is NOT a socialist country. It has some socialist ideals and institutions but it is anything but. In case you have been living in a cave, Canada practices capitalism. How is it socialism then?

Lastly, anarchism IS left wing. What is neutral is liberatarianism. Anarchism is definitely left wing. In fact, the official Anarchist Party of USA of USA even calls themselves liberatarian socialism. What might be confusing you is the mainstream view that anarchism is something to do with vandalism. Or perhaps you are confused with anarcho-capitalism, which in my opinion isn't even anarchism since capitalism will result in corporations ruling everyone. If anarchism is NOT left wing, why do they always march with socialists, communists, Greens, feminists, etc during marches? You don't see the fascists or capitalists (right wing) marching with any of these people, do you?

If you still think anarchism is not left wing, study the history and roots of anarchism. It is squrely rooted in left wing ideologies. Anarchism may not support the state (like communism) but it certainly is rooted in egalitarianism.
