this was my rant about Canadians a couple of days ago and it still applies today....

This was concerning home schoolers not being allowed religious materials for home schooling.

the posted comment I replied to was..This is outrageous! How could this happen in a country (Canada) with political and religious freedoms similar to our own?

They have NOTHING that is similar to our freedoms. The Canadians "Earned" their freedom with distances.... the distance they are from the US and the distance they are from the UK and France.

They are basically a group of ungrateful parasites that wouldn't know a tyrant/dictator/terrorist thug if he banged them all night.

In other words they are a 3rd world country with pretensions of grandeur offered a country that sucks up to liberals and is good for nothing more than hockey, snow, beer, nice looking blonde women and an occasionally funny comedienne. You'll notice that to "MAKE IT BIG" they have to come use our "evil capitalistic", "crude", "Over patriotic" dollar bills.

Hey Canada,

Lay down, take it like the whiny beeaattches you are and don't fight for your rights. Elect more libs and your daughters will soon have the right to wear veils, and you can beat the snot out of your wife if you feel like it. The only problem is that you'll have to pray 5 times a day and get rid of "Canadian Bacon".

Add this to any Canadian that may read my previous rant in case any of them think I'm envious of what our northern neighbor has......

I'm not jealous in anyway to what your country (Canada) has to offer.... I'm from Texas and I'll stack our beer (Shiner Bock), our blondes (too many to name), our comediennes (go to any nickel beer night at the Dixie Chicken)..... and just kneel and thank God that boys in Texas would rather play football, hunt deer and fornicate with the aforementioned blondes than play hockey. ... or you'd really hate our guts and boo our national anthem.

I'm generally a civil person but if I'm at the arena and Tampa plays a Canadian team again and I hear a "boo" during our national anthem... call security and a gastroenterologist to pull my size 10 out of your rear end.

'nuff said. and Amen.

I think you're overgeneralizing a bit in your comments on Canadians. I have a Canadian friend who is a clergyman in another denomination (i.e. he's *not* Anglican). From what he's told me - the leftists in power a couple of decades ago redid the Canadian Constitution just the way folks like hitlary, shumer, and john ('f-in') kerry would *like* to do to ours. It gave the majority of the power to the leftists in the eastern cities, and left the conservatives (both rural and urban) largely without a voice. I don't know all the specifics of how this was accomplished, but it seems they mostly used 'divide and conquer' tactics by splitting off as many special interest groups as they could and making those special interests more or less dependent on leftist government policies. Most of the folks in Western and Northern Canada do NOT agree with their federal government and have made that very clear - unlike the United States, Canadian Provinces may vote to suspend/ignore federal laws - they have to do it as soon as the law is passed, and it has to be renewed by popular vote on a regular basis (I think it's every 5 years?), but it can be, and has been done. That's why some western provinces have simply refused to enforce Canada's gun registration law, for example. What's funny, in a dark sort of way, is the fact that both the leftist Canadian press and their counterparts here in the States have pretty much refused to even acknowledge such things occur. None the less, one has to realize that Canada is becoming just as fragmented and polarized as we are...which in turn poses some interesting possibilities for the future.
