A Canadian community has blocked plans for a controversial memorial to Americans who fled to Canada to avoid the Vietnam War and U.S. military draft, officials said on Wednesday. Wow. Canadians I can respect. Keen.

too bad I wanted to see just how long it would last after the dedication given the numbers of spec ops still able to stealthfully infiltrate and demolate ugly symbols...

All of the Canadians I've spoken with are embarrassed at this.

I guess the Canadians heard the rumble of 50,000 Canadian WW2 war heroes spinning in their graves.

No Canadian memorial to Vietnam War draft-dodgers could ever be more disgraceful than the two "memorials" we built for them right here in the United States -- the 1992 and 1996 presidential elections.

Like a dying fish stranded on a dock, even a nation governed by Leftist idiots and scoundrels sometimes has an isolated spasm of sense. Canada though still seems unlikely to survive its next hard test as a nation unless we bother to prop them up out of misplaced charity.
