Actually, C, I have been thinking about Canadian timber all day. And the fact that so far only Detroit has won more games (12) than Montreal (9).

The United States playing by rules? Only when it fits their current situation.
The Government of the United States of America are a lying and cheating empire that is beginning to fail. You can try and cheat the people around you but when you lie and cheat your own is when you implode.
Have fun trying to figure out who is causing all of the problems within your borders. Is it terrorism or is it your own?

Funny, I would have thought a Canadian concerned about lying and cheating would give priority to this story.
http://www.canada.com/national/nationalpost/news/story.html?id=45fb3683-24ab-419a-be07-7e4d22cd4296
OTTAWA - Paul Martin will turn over Justice John Gomery's report into the $250-million sponsorship scandal to the RCMP for further criminal investigation of what the Quebec judge described as a kickback scheme that funnelled hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Quebec wing of the Liberal Party of Canada. [snip]
[snip] Judge Gomery's report was blunt in its attack on the sponsorship program. He said public trust was "subverted and betrayed" and that Canadians were rightly outraged over the scandal not just because their money was wasted and misappropriated, but because "no one was held responsible."
Mr. Martin moved yesterday to step up legal action against 12 more individuals and companies identified in the report to recover a total of $57-million in taxpayers' money that was obtained fraudulently. And he asked the chairs and boards of Crown corporations to take disciplinary action against those identified in the report for wrongdoing or simply failing to do their jobs. [snip] |

If you would like my opinion regarding the Gomery Report make a topic with it as the title. This topic was concerning the softwood lumber lie and the lying USA.
I did in fact wake-up a little earlier this morning to have the opportunity to read what the Gomery scathing report had to say about the greedy individuals that stole my tax dollars. How many Americanos are well read regarding the stealing of Canadian money and the broken promises that were made in an agreement called the North American Free Trade agreement. An agreement spearheaded by the same people who are now pulling out and sending people to our country with no answers.
When do you think the States are going to attack us with their military? (If there are any soldiers left?) Just want to be as ready as possible.

The US MUST invade Canada because "like maple syrup, Canada's evil oozes over the United States." "Think of your children pledging allegiance to the maple leaf; mayonnaise on everything; winter 11 months of the year; Anne Murray all day, every day."
Gotta love the movie Canadian Bacon!

"You smell anything?"
"No."
"Exactly! Canada!"

Brendan, while Erebus posted an interesting article, don´t get sucked into the ´your scumbags are worse than my scumbags´ argument. Let´s just agree all governments are lying cocksuckers and move on.

Hey, I appreciate it. Believe me, I had to be calmed down last night in a heated discussion regarding the Canadian Gov't or lackthereof!
How about grabbing me a stubby, scooching on over and sittin' next to me on the Chesterfield, eh! How's that for some Canadiana! Oh ya, afterwards we can hit the street and play some ball hockey, don't forget your tuques!
Kathryn, it is no longer 11 months of winter it is 11 months of road construction and 10.5 months of winter. And Neil Young is an American. That is the way he wants it to be known. Just like Bono is English when he feels it suits. I would have understood if you included Rush or Eat a big meal....sorry Rita McNeill.

Brendan, one of the best nights of my life was at a Rush concert at the old Forum in Montreal.
Now hand me a serviette, I just spilled some poutine on my toque.
Owen, that's an oft-quoted line from the most excellent comedy "Canadian Bacon," which you should watch pronto!
Whenever a Canadian friend walks in the room or a Canadian celebrity is mentioned, you say "They walk among us."
I know, I know, that last sentence contains an oxymoron ("Canadian celebrity").

Canada seems like a good country. they don't impose their will on other countries. they have good health care, and they generally seem like nice people.
if they could just stop the whole clubbing-defenseless-baby-seals thing they'd be golden |

Erebus, I can see that you are about as open-minded about paying debt and understanding the truth about current political situations that I am going to hazzard a guess that you are a cog in the USA Congress or maybe a state senator? Just a guess.
As far as our Edmonton ladies, please try and keep that secret under your hats. It is worth the drive to Alberta!
Canadian men in bed - we invented lying on our back. Do you know how hard it is to drink a beer while looking at the ceiling and having some Edmontonian movin' and shakin' on top! Very hard!

It's one thing to be angry about the direction of one's country, but this is simply wrong. The US is neither fascist nor theocratic. Not even close and you know it. As somebody said, "You're entitled to your own opinion but you're not entitled to your own facts." |

Erebus, I don´t think the US is fascist. The leaders yes but not the people, well most of them (so are the leaders of my landmass so this isn´t a slight directed against you). On a Thomas Pynchon website I saw quoted a pressconference where Bush/his scriptwriter said "this war is about peace." Don´t you think when heads of state start quoting George Orwell it´s time to reevaluate the situation?
Peace (in the old sense of the word),

Erebus, I'm curious what you know, exactly, about the Sponsorship Scandal. Did you just google "canadian government corruption" or do you guys actually hear about this down there?
Also, if we're going to compare corrupt governments situation by situation, then shouldn't you be finding examples where Canada is adversly affecting the US or another country in which it is engaged in supposed free-trade, wherein Canada has been ruled against by pretty much every level of dispute mechanism and is STILL doing nothing about it? An internal crisis (and I don't think the scandal qualifies as that as much as the media enjoys attempting to blow it out of scope) is a different animal completely.
Happy searching.

Another small fact that I have found of interest.
It is known that the CIA and US intelligence have used the infant mortality rate of third world nations to achieve a better understanding of where the next "hotspots" in the world might be. Once they have highlighted a few with resources that are of US interest then they deploy their "peacekeeping" soldiers and tanks to maintain control of the nation for the betterment of that particular nations people and for the rest of the world. Over the past five years the USA has had the largest increase of infant mortality rate in the world. When will the intelligence turn focus unto themselves?
God bless America. No theocracy?
Where are the militias? Soon to be scene I think. Anyone remember Timothy McVeigh? I think this time he/she will be a former resident of New Orleans. One of the forgotten citizens.
Protect Florida and the rich. Especially since Jeb is involved.
Give us our monies owed (softwood) and we will consider helping you in the future. What the hell, we will help no metter what. We need nothing in return.

Erebus, do you really still support this administration?? Hasn't it become clear to you yet? The fat moronic people(?) of this country have been duped! Thanks in part to that ridiculous box in everyones living room. If it speaks the people of America listen and listen closely. Ooooh! Evildoers! Okay whatever you say all mighty box! I spend hours and hours in front of you everyday. Hasn't it become clear to you that we are the people being subjected to the war propaganda? By our elected officials mind you. Officials, that even with YOUR vote on their side still had to steal (Diebold?) another election to continue with the death and destruction they impart upon the rest of the world. And the whole time we as Americans feel we are doing something good as long as we are busy sticking plastic flags and yellow ribbons on our obnoxious SUV's. I'm sick of this fucking place! There is some sort of bizarre evil white bread christian cult trying to take over the world.
Um, this is good coffee!
Thank you, drive through.
