“Canadian FReepers are unabashedly pro-American (both herein & at home) and, accordingly, find outright bashing of Canada & all Canadians as well as the thinly veiled sort evident on threads like this one incredibly offensive.”
I sit on a council in my industry with several Canadian’s, and they express embarrassment at the anti American stuff thats come out from their elected officials on a routine basis.
