Personally, if I were an American - especially one with any past or present connection to her patriot Armed Forces - I wouldn't spend a cent in Canada on principle.

Further, I suspect a significant portion of U.S. citizens feel exactly this way. For the past few years, the Government has been whining about tourism levels being down and, with the help of its pals in our msm, tried to blame this solely on the SARS outbreak. But, where does the largest single block of tourists to Canada come from?
You guessed it - the USA.
Got a Kanuckistani tourism-based operation and its business is in the toilet?
Blame Carolyn Parrish and the rest of the loud-mouthed anti-American Liberal and NDP whack-jobs!

However, Yanks should also note that among the most virulent anti-U.S. scum up here are the thousands of draft dodgers and military deserters who arrived in the 60's and 70's and the countless people they influence.
Accordingly, if you don't like America-bashing coming from North of the border, stop urging still more of your left-wing social misfits to join them!

I find the anti-American rhetoric streaming out of the mouths of hateful Canadians quite upsetting. That said, I've also made the acquaintance of several lovely Canadians via email posts on various lists and message boards. You can't tag all Canadians with the boorishness of MP Carolyn Parrish.

That's a very important point about draft dodgers. They are the scummiest Canadians of all. And they spend all their energy vilifying the United States. We had a history teacher he would visit our Grade 12 glass from time to time. You'd think the United States was some evil empire.
