BTW, it was at the rally mentioned above where I first saw the marvelous slogan paraphrasing the infamous slur from the evil Carolyn Parrish:

"Damned Liberals, I hate those bastards!"

There's nothing wrong with criticism of a superpower,

That really depends on the superpower, doesn't it? Think about it.

Considering that EVERY time I drive down a certain through road in the neighbouring city (I live in an amalgam of 5 cities and several other fiefdoms), I see both Old Glory AND the Maple Leaf flying in a stranger's front yard, well, I guess I'm not alone out here.

I DO wish we still had a REAL flag, though.

It's good to know that all Canadians don't hate the US.

When talking to the average Canadian, it is essentially impossible to tell that you are not talking to another average American. The liberal left-wing government may be anti-American, but visiting a Canadian city or town feels no different than visiting another American city or town.

Honestly, I think the US has a higher percentage of anti-Americans on average than Canada. They may exist up there, but I've never met them in my travels.

..... secular humanism is not tolerance at all but in itself a genuine form of fundamentalism

Best line in the article

By the looks of it, that picture was taken in April of 2002. I was at the rally in Toronto, but I don't recognise the building in the background.

Wait, I do recognise the building top on the right - that's old city hall in Toronto. Somewhere in the background of that picture my poor freezing hands were flying old glory. I especially remember the "Chretien Sucks" chant that kept going for about 2 minutes. LOL.
