That respect was long ago...Canada has to live in the present and they are not pulling their weight. The government cannot even manage socialism of their nanny state.

Sez you? What makes you the expert on what Canada should be doing. Then again, for some of you naysayers, anything we do to contribute, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Haiti, ships in the gulf etc. would still be scoffed at and ridiculed. Are you so consumed by your own opinions that you cannot show ANY appreciation for what we ARE doing?

Now might be a good time to drop the "red ass" routine and save it for the SOB'S causing all the problems and stop dissing the people pitching in.
