And that Gore & Nader received most of the votes in 2000? And that Kerry is running neck & neck with Dubya?
We have global battle between people who love freedom (and there are even Frenchmen in this category) and people who want power & their Renfield-like followers (and this includes Americans like Clinton/Kerry/Rather/Moore/Streisand.
ROFL I love SCTV
Hey that good idea play SCTV reruns on Fox news LOLOLOL!
That would satisfy the Canucks LOL!
Don't be hoser Canada eh
turd.
Fox won't necessarily do anything to CBC. Fox, as currently configured, is incessantly America-oriented. Foreign news is, well, foreign. And if Fox loads up on Canadian news, it may alienate American viewers. If Fox doesn't change, they will bore Canadians to changing the channel. If they do change, they risk losing the home audience.
The result would be to give Canadians an opportunity to see a different perspective on the US and a different geopolitical persective.
Mother Corp would have to start rebalancing its geopolitical perspectives because there would then be a reality check which the competing Canadian networks and the existing left biased US networks do not sufficiantly provide.
Which country has given Bill Clinton a second term despite his stance on abortion?
It seems you have a short memory.
"Which country has given Bill Clinton a second term despite his stance on abortion? It seems you have a short memory."
WTF...??? I can't fathom a lamer excuse for rationalizing the Canucks' idiocy and cowardice!!!
You've got to be kidding! How does the fact that Bubba was elected (during a period described as a "Holiday from History" and who was later impeached) possibly matter to the case at issue?
We are currently AT WAR and have been since before the Martin elections. The fact is the British and Australians acquitted themselves admirably as valuable allies. The Canucks from Canuckistan are so fundamentally degenerate that they can't even muster the popular political will to support their own troops that they themselves cynically put in harms' way. By cynically, I mean trying to have it both ways by sending a contingent to fight, but continuing to allow their military to be gutted by Liberal policies, all the while watching their soldiers and sailors die. A more egregious example of vile contempt I cannot find.
Not to mention continuing to vilify the US as "more dangerous than the Taliban". Canucks are all laughingstocks and have lost all credibility as partners or allies; like the French and Germans.
F**k Canuckistan!
Canuckleheads are still on that 'Holiday from History' - no doubt about it.
Nevertheless, the socio-political divisions in Canada are pretty much the same as in the States, give or take 5%.
Some of us Canucks are very well aware of the deficiencies of our nation, and our system of governance. Still, we know which side we're on, and it ain't the side of the French!
Tell us true - did some hockey player steal your girl? ;^)
They have CNN and some Fox affiliates (not Fox News) on cable.
The cable companies petitioned the board to allow them to have FOX. There was a demand and they had the resources.
The only reason FOXNEWS is not in Canada is because it was BANNED by the Liberal Government.
Very astute, this is a clash of cultures which trandscends traditional national boundaries.
You are probably the same jerk that will whine about ant-Americanism, fortunately you are a very small man with an even smaller voice.
Back in 1998, for some reason, you could not get the history channel in Canada. Has that changed at all?
We have had the history channel since at least 1995.
Thanks, it might have been '94 not '98. I was staying in a hotel in Canada and an advert came on for the History Channel with the banner underneath "Not Available in Canada", and me thinking "Wot's up wid dat?"
Exactly!! And it can't be said enough.
