This Canadian says" "Chretien does not speak for Canada"

G'day. I'm a 6th generation Canadian and I have never voted liberal or supported ANY of the socialist trash and lefty lawyers which Quebec has foisted on the Canadian public. Far as I know, none of my relatives or friends have either (I'm the kind that simply can't mix with liberals,… weak stomach).

I want every good Republican down here to know this is one Canadian who detests the leftist scum that vegitates in our parliament more than you do. There are lots more of us too. If you care to join in on our form sometime you'll find some kindred spirits north of the 49th:

Most of us outside the politically correct GTA (greater Toronto Area) and university campuses actually work for our income and have lived and worked west and south of the Toronto City limits. We have traditional Canadian values and know who our friends are. If I had to choose between Americans and the rot that has infested my federal government as to which was responsible for the bread and butter on my family's table, I side with my US friends who buy my company’s products in a New York min. I, and most traditional Canadians, know America’s and Canada’s cultures and economies are inseparably linked. We share more in common than any other two nations on the globe…..except for our political elites.

I have lived in areas of this nation where the disgust for the Ottawa lib-left regimes is so intense, provincial independence movements have sprung up. Essentially, central Canada (Quebec and south Ontario) see the rest of the nation as vassal colonies to be plundered for taxes and politically disempowered with a disproportionate seat distribution electoral system. Chretien won a majority government with less than 38% of the popular vote (most of it from southern Ontario and Quebec). The socialist center gets fat at the expense of the Rest of the working nation and they run the political agenda. There is deep loathing of the Chretien regime from Conservatives and free republicans alike in Canada. We hate the way socialist collectivism has been used as a plunder and patronage tool instead of the equality of traditional commonwealth federalism we had before Trudeau.

His government’s petty anti- American attitude, actions and foot-dragging in supporting out greatest ally and trade partner is nothing less than despicable. He has made me ashamed to call myself Canadian and I'm certainly not alone in these feelings.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to inform you folks that Chretien and his band of Marxist misfits DO NOT speak for me or many millions like me. I also want to apologize for the tainted actions of this buffoon and assure you this Quebecois bush ape is NOT representative of the Canadian character

This is second time that Chretien has insulted U.S.

In September, he said to the effect of the words that U.S. is responsible for 9-11

Ditto! This Western Canadian absolutely DETESTS the rodents called the federal Liberals. It baffles the mind that Chretien and his minions continue to do the best they can at offending the United States. It is hard to imagine Canada surviving any sort of retaliation for the anti-Americanism spewing out of the mouths of the morons in Ottawa. Especially when one realizes the only reason Canada exists as an independent nation is because of American benevolence - if we were adjacent to any other superpower in history - we would've been conquered long ago.

I hate to say it but the US probably should put its foot down and penalize my country for the stupidity our leaders are doing. Couple this with an invitation to us in the West to join the US - we're much better off being part of the US than remaining in a Canada where we're under-represented and disenfranchised. Besides, we in the West didn't vote for the Liberals - blame Ontario and Eastern Canada for that catastrophe.

Canada is quicky going down the tubes, and it is too bad.
Canada has allowed uncontrolled immigration, and it will destroy Canada, if Canada does not wake up mighty fast.
Even Muslim kids are playing games telling just how they will take Canada over, and Canada is just a sitting duck, waiting for it all to happen.

Thanks for the comments and the gracious offer.

I can only speak for myself, of course, but I assumed that Canada has the same sort of diversity of political views as does my country, and that, as it does here, the left in your country tends to dominate the organs of public discourse.

I have further assumed that the anti-American tone of much of your political culture springs from a complex dynamic, a decision resulting from many forces that find it useful to consistantly stand in opposition to the US as long as that is a cost-free position. They know we pose no physical threat to Canada, and no commercial or economic threat either, as our commercial behaviour is governed to a very great extent by private capitalists who do not care a fig about your public pro- or anti-Americanism.

I find your CBC program "As It Happens" to be amusing when I occaisionally listen in. It's amazing how many "stories from a Canadian perspective" turn out to consist of a Canadian reporter interviewing some American who is actually accomplishing something worth talking about. Quite a few of the stories in which they interview Canadians consist of criticisms of the US (on the Kyoto protocols or the EU's International Criminal Court or whatever).

I've no doubt that if Canada were ever to feel an existential level of fear from some foreigh power, your countrymen would stand shoulder to shoulder with us in short order. I well remember what Canadians did, and the risks they took, to help our hostages in Tehran in 1978 and 1979.

Stay well and stay warm,

You speak for me too with this one, wlyonmackenzie.

[Mike Darancette]

Now if the Red Areas on the American Map and the Red areas on the Canadian Map could get together, then that would make one heck of a country wouldn't it?

[mitchbert]

This is one GTA Canuck that agrees 110%. Great post. There's more of us out here than may appear.

Cheers, eh!

Thank you for your comments. I thought that most Canadians were sensible people. I'm sorry that your government is led by such liberal socialists. We were very close to being swamped the same way when our President Bush came riding into Washington and showed the country and the world what a leader really is. But we have to be very vigilent and do everything in our power to defeat the socialist forces that will try to take over again and suck our country dry. I hope you conservative Canadians can get organized and defeat them in your country. Or secede and join our country.

#6 good post

[syriacus]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
BTW, has Chretien seen his new home yet?
If he buys a little paint, he can have his own name over the front door.

[McGavin999]

Thanks, we knew we could rely on you guys. We're well aware of what you're going through. Remember we just got out of an eight years battle with Clinton.

I agree that western Canada (as well as central Canada) is fabulous and nothing like Quebec and TO (aka Tarrana ;o) )

[Cacique]

btt

[bigfootbob]

We understand, we had Clinton disease for 8 years. Keep your heads up. Isn't Victoria cutting 35,000 government jobs in the next couple of years? That's a good start!

LOL. I still can't find Elsinore beer anywhere, eh?

So, do you all pronounce his name char-la-tan or crea-tin? I hear you, keep fighting, and thanks for letting us know the quiet riet (ie the not-media people of the right) is in resistance. Truth and right prevail in the end. Big cities are self-destroying. Just keep populating the "fly over country" which is really the "we have room to breath and are safer from the idiots and thugs country" (good fences make good neighbors and expanse of land makes the best fences) and the liberals in the big cities will kill each other and rob each other, fighting for entitlements from each other, too lazy to work, aborting their offspring (and although it's a greivous crime, in the end it cuts them off from having a future generation to foist their ideaology with, and spares the innocent children they kill from the tortuous living death of liberal leprosy and all it's lies, self-pity and bitterness - which isn't really living anyway is it? - of course it doesn't make abortion ok, but it is a sort of soothing consolation, no? I mean it's one of those situations where God works all things together for Good, despite some men's best efforts to cut off His creation - they kill em, but can't take them out of God's hands) or refusing to create them in their perverse sodomy and thus keeping them in check. Populate and educate with the truth! Just don't let them get their hands on your progeny in their liberal warping schools and uniperversities. We know you are up there and that not all Canadians are canidiots. One team, one fight. Freedom! God Bless Canada and the Freedominion!
