"I have to disagree with that. 'Why' is important in that there's a difference in doing something because it 'is the right thing to do' - not out of fear of a penalty."
This is a whole city. This is politics. This is a group of people.......no, the only way to obtain meaning from this is to look at the actions. I like the actions.
If you want to continue to flog the good folks of Nelson BC who, through no fault of their own, were once infested with cowardly draft-dodging vermin, go ahead. These folks are OK in my book.
I fully support the 'good folks' of Nelson, BC. The problem is either that there aren't enough of them - or that they are not being heard. Regardless, the relentless anti-Americanism flowing from Canada has seriously eroded my previously very pro-Canada stance down to a pro-Alberta stance. The rest of the country seems bent on going down the euro-socialist trail. The notion that this idea even got off the ground is disturbing. I wonder how it would have played out had Fox news not gotten ahold of the story.
