You seem to be the one missing the point.
I've made my point, It just seems that many of you Canadians what living under a free market society seems to mean any more. Turn off the CBC and free your mind.
really this is just an opportunity for you to enjoy one of your favorite pasttimes, Canada bashing, on the backs of those infected and killed by SARS. Real nice.
As for SARS, I made it a point in my posts here NOT to take light of the problem. I am sorry that you misinterpreted this.
Regarding "Canada bashing", If you have ever bothered to read my previous posts, you will see that I engage in exposing the Chretien socialists for what they are. Others may read my postings and make sweeping generalizations toward Canada and Canadians in general, which I do not agree with at all.
By the way, "America bashing" has been going on in Canada since before Confederation, and we have mainly ignored it until recently. Now that some Americans are becoming aware of it,and are starting to comment about it, you complain. Oh well...

Well then, what was your point in posting this article with the title you gave it? I can't see that it's anything other than Canada-bashing.
As far as America-bashing by Canadians is concerned, well I think you could stand to have a little thicker skin. After all, if you're going to be the world's sole superpower and do whatever you want wherever you want in the world, it should hardly come as a surprise that some will resent you, even if that resentment is entirely rational. And as far as Canadians go, you try living next to a country whose population greatly outnumbers yours, whose culture tends to swamp yours, and who followed a doctrine called "Manifest Destiny" for many years that suggested that you wanted to (forcibly?) make us part of your country (yes, I know that was many years ago), and you might begin to understand the undercurrent of anti-Americanism in Canada.
