"...David Wilkins, took up his post last week, presenting his meagre credentials to the governor general on Wednesday..."Ambassador Wilkins is the personal representative of the President of the United States of America. If anything is meager in this relationship, it is that freeloading socialist entity which rides comfortably on our shoulders.

Marine, It seems to this swabbie that you are being a bit over-kind to our pathetic Canuck neighbors.
It is a sad testament to the decadence built into the clock. I well remember the day in the 50's when we had exchange RCN aviators in my squadron from Halifax; and substantial technology was provided our ASW forces by our brethren to the North.
Sad commentary on the unmerciful historical calendar! And, regrettably, the cork no longer fits in the bottle.
Happy 4th -- and "Semper Fi" to you and yours.
