Your post reflects, for me, the all too familiar hubris of the Canadian government and the anti-American sentiment up north. Canada has once again chosen to stab us in the back after telling President Bush that they would be on board...we here on Free Republic express our displeasure with the treatment we have received and you have the balls to come here onto an American site to lecture us about how we feel.

I'm sure this will go right over your head, but you confirm alot of people's veiws of what Canada is really all about.

Sorry, don't mean to brag but there isn't a lot that goes over my head.

The knife is in our back not yours. The US has been poking it's thumb in Canada's eye for fifteen years on trade and you want us to sign on to MD.

None of my criticisms is base on emotion. What I have said is based on facts that are on the public record for all to see.

I'm not lecturing anyone on their feelings. Feelings are quite irrelevant. I've given my view on why Martin can't support MD because of fifteen years of unresolved trade issues.

Give us something to run with and we can do something on MD.

As it stands the US has lost it's appeal six times since 1991 on softwood at the WTO, GATT and the NAFTA resolution panel and each time the US has chosen to go back to court.

So who has the reputation for not cooperating and consistently saying no?
