Right with you Ivan. Please take all things posted by ye olde source with a pinch of salt. I just enjoy any criticism though- even of my adopted country Canada. What things an Englishman will put up with to hear and read honest old American free speech.

Cliche here. Having said that My adopted city of Sault Ste Marie, has a long tradition of service in the wars. Yellow is unkind. Anyway, forgive this little homily. My friend who has long roots in First Nations history, has his Canadian born son, out there right now with the American Forces- he has dual rights of course. Others from this area are also serving with - and are of the American forces.

Anyway, Edmund Burke was right and also Voltaire. Free Speech for all and nuts to calling Canada yellow.

To self: Forgot to comment on the actual subject. As we speak "The worst case of terrorism in Canadian history is finally coming to trial" (Quoting Canadian Press. Vancouver).

It was in 1985 that an Air India Flight from Vancouver to New Delhi blew up. A suitcase bomb was aboard. 329 innocent souls died over the Irish Sea.

Flawed thinking here about Canada being protected. If this was followed through logically, the two accused should be set free Now. They are of a huge Sikh community in British Columbia.

They seek a separate state, to secede from India- Khalistan. Following through, one could say, if these terrorists are punished- more bombings will follow. The Canadian Government obviously is determined to crush their OWN domestic terrorism- after all 25 years in jail,which they may get, ain't appeasment.
