After seeing the paltry turnout and low quality protest on Bush arrival. I'M NOT MAD AT CANADA ANYMORE.
Glad to hear it!
...right up your alley, girl!
I find that the negative comments about Canada are clearly directed at our liberal government and their socialist policies.
I find sometimes you get the odd one a little over the top, but I have as many nasty comments about our liberals and socialist media as well.
I find Americans have been extremely friendly, and responses very warm and cheerful, at least to me. I have been in discussions and always treated kindly. One time I was misunderstood and that resulted in someone being rather nasty. That person was immediately called on it by American FReepers. He very graciously said he misread what I had posted and asked forgiveness...not by private mail.
My experiences on Free Republic have been most pleasant.
Thanks for the ping Landru. 8^)
OH, Canada! Thank you for the true patriots among you, and thank you for your friendship...
How lovely to see our President so well received there in the Great White North!
Gosh, that is so refreshing and heartening!! Way to go FD!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
From the FD website:
Bush: "I frankly felt like the reception we received on the way in from the airport was very warm and hospitable. And I want to thank the Canadian people who came out to wave -- with all five fingers."
Moran concluded: "It will take more than good humor, however, to repair the strains in this old alliance. And in others."
High five & Thumbs up BTTT
Wouldn't that be a great team??!!
President Bush and Stephen Harper. I think I'll dream about it tonight.
Way to go --- many thanks...
Well, I'll post. Great job Connie. Thanks Free Dominion!
Alberta is a great place; that province has the friendliest hikers I've ever met. On the other hand, take Quebec.....please!
We need to remember that we'r the same people under different flags,
except for Quebec and Masschituschet...whatever.
Thank You, Free Canadians.
The last time I visited the Free Dominion forum, I saw a group of posters who were plotting to march and demonstrate to regain their "religious freedoms"
ONWARD CANADIAN FReepers!
Bump.
Thanks!
Is there a thread on FD so we can thank them there?
I registered when FR went down and they took us in.
