Another place I can add to my list of countries I will never again visit. And trust me, that's no big loss. I can't say as I've ever enjoyed a trip to Canada, with the sole exception being maybe the kitschy Niagra Falls.

We went to Canada up the North shore of Lake Superior. Absolutely breathtaking beauty! But after we reached Thunder Bay, we turned back west to go back to the states through International Falls, Mn. Nothing but swamps and pine trees. Total desolation. We drove for hours and hours and no people, cars or towns. Just nothing. If we ever go back, it will be just to Thunder Bay and back down the coast to Duluth. And we won't spend any money.

I spent a good portion of my career in the States (all over) - at least 100 days per year for a period of approx 20 years. I must say that almost all Americans I met over those years were really great folks and it'd be hard to differentiate the average American and the average Canadian.
It was no doubt my positive perspective of America that help motivate my son to move permanently to the States.
So how come we're on a forum (FR) where there are so many Canadian bashing dickheads..
I'm beginning to think that there are far more Canadian bashers in the Conservative ranks in the U.S. than in any other demographic - and at a time when our boys are fighting and dying together in Afghanistan..
I guess the Conservative tent in the U.S. is big enough to include ignorant dickheads...
BTW, we're happy that people like you no longer come to Canada. We don't need you and we don't want you ("you" meaning Canada bashers). So, FU.
