Ignoring the irrelevant views of your cousin whom you've effectively dismissed as an idiot, bashing virtually ALL Canadians amounts to imposing collective guilt based upon the actions/policies of our former Liberal government & related anti-American statements by it's members & fellow travelers.

Aside from noting that we've now thrown them out & are working even harder to win a Conservative majority to keep them out of power, dismantle their matriarchal socialist programs & rebuild our military, I'd add that I know of no Canadian conservative - on FR or anywhere else - ever lumping the vast majority of decent Americans in with the likes of the vile Clintons or Kennedys.

It's disturbing that there appears to be a growing siege mentality within certain quarters on the U.S. right which impedes the perception or causes the rejection of non-domestic otherwise friends & allies.

Plus, no matter which country it originates from, anti American or Canadian rhetoric is insulting to the countless families with branches on both sides of our border.

The following survey was conducted at the G&M which attracts a left-wing readership. It is consistent with the vast majority of Canadians being as concerned about, or perhaps more concerned about, Muslim extremists than even Australians, Americans or Brits. There is no room for bashing Canadians.

Are moderate Canadian Muslim leaders doing enough to combat radicalism?

I live in California where we have maybe 10% more Democrats than Republicans so I know of such frustrations with socialists.

I can't imagine the frustration of a conservative in Canada who has to put up with a society that in general is somewhat worse than northern California but on a national scale.

I also do have several Canadian friends, about half are conservatives and half are liberal. Both sides would by far call Canada a heavy liberal country at this point with trends starting to go the other way a bit.

When I say Canadians at this point offer their necks to the terrorists, my meaning is that they have such entrenched views and liberal laws, that at this time they are like lambs being led to the slaughter.
It's like they have problems throughout the country that mirror our government's lack of will to secure the borders.

I fully hope Canadians as a country can grasp enough Conservatism back in power to retake control of their own safety from within. Right now, I don't think you have it and I fear many of the approaches to immigrants have been naive and dangerous for you all as well.

I also hope conservatism gets more on board in this country as well. We have suffered for some time not having the type of Conservatives that brought us the Contract With America.

As far as my harsh statements and views, yes they are.
I see the people suffering under a system and government that would IMO mirror the city of San Francisco, but on a national scale.
That isn't IMO a healthy condition for the people of Canada and it doesn't help the United States either.

I think as a people Canadians have been far less on guard than they should have been. Thus the title Jihad Denial in Toronto. (Ignorance has been bliss to liberals there).

I do feel and side with the good conservatives of Canada I assure you though and wish them great success in turning things around.
