“BC is beautiful but ...
having lived there many years (no longer), I can honestly say that there’s an amazing number of people there that are simply nuts
Max, you lived in Vancouver ... back me up here”

I LAUGH at American Freepers who keep saying canadians, especially BC folks are “not” anti American.
Vancouver makes San Fran look like Reagan’s home. Anyone remember the 2003 Iraq War? EVERY STREET they were burning American flags EVERY WEEK for the next 8 months. I remember it vividly...

I do......In 2003 I was on a ski trip to Whistler and Black Comb and made the mistake of wearing an American flag pin on my ski jacket. I got nothing but bad looks from the lift attendants and even had one female stationed at a quad lift who was supposed to slow down the chair for the riders but didn't for me, even after I wished her a pleasant good morning then "smack" in the back of my legs from the chair.
I don't know if she was a Canadian or one of the many Australian ski bums working out there..........
The atmosphere then in early March was kind of strange.........
I spent the first three days skiing with my nephew and his buddies in the poor weather (drizzling rain) then the next two in the condo watching the beginning days of the Iraqi war..........
I hate to rag on the Canadians since my step sisters and step-mother are all naturalized U.S. citizens and staunch conservatives. (Step-mother now deceased).......
See? We can be friends.......... :)
