"If you don't see things my way, then you are not a conservative."

Predictable claptrap from someone who seems to know nothing about our northern neighbor. Have you ever actually been to canada? This concept that we have nothing to learn from anyone else is a disturbing trend on this forum and a real weakness amongst conservatives.

Dr.Luv, as a Canucklehead posting here for a couple of years, I can assure you that I, at least, am not offended by American hostility to Northern Sopcialism. Your countrymen may be somewhat provincial in their perspectives, but they are a breath of fresh air compared to the fatuous smarminess of Canada's established opinion-makers.

Mind you, I'm not surprised that you chaps cheer on your own Southern Socialists in their familiar guise as 'good citizens', protecting the population from self-reliance.

Anyways, conservatives are no more ignorant than liberals. ;^)

I probably know more about Canada than you do, but you appear to be so close-minded that facts are not going impact you. And yes, I have been to Canada, and I have been to Europe, and I know the difference between conservatism and socialism. You apparently are here promulgating socialism -- as something we can "learn". I guess it has never occurred to you that maybe we are informed and know what Canada is about and just don't like it.

Maybe you also think that we should explore the "root causes" of terrorism and "learn" from the militant Islamics so that they won't hate us so much...

Have you ever really studied the founding of this country? Have you ever really studied that Founding Documents, the Federalist Papers, the biographies of Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Franklin etc??

Maybe, instead of trying to "teach" others, Dr. Luv, you would do well to take your own advice and "learn" from conservatives...
