I think this is more anger at Canada's duplicitous treatment of the USA, especially the last 10 years' USA bashing, than at someone who is assigned here.

Canada has done significant damage to itself. I am sure tourism is down (I need to Google about to see how bad).

But if he is here on assignment and not because he has voluntarily relocated then this is just bad form by the local Yahoos.

He is here officially as the Canadian Military Liaison with assigned duties to interface with the Military Intelligence Center & School. He is one of several that include Great Britain, Australia, and France. Additionally, Foreign Military Students attend the training, routinely from South Korea, Saudi Arabia, and there are students beginning to come from the former Soviet Satellite countries like Poland, Czech Republic, etc.

These FMLO all participate in the community Memorial Day, Veteran's Day Ceremonies in uniform to show their respect for all fallen. The French FMLO's son is in Cub Scouts here and having a blast.

While we may disparage the current governments of some of these FMLOs, these are all honorable men and military brothers that hold the same values that we do.

Yes, the locals doing this are Red-Neck Cracker Yokels and an embarrassment.
