Well, I find much of this article's points hard to argue, but I will say this: the author made the point that the Canadian people are good people, for the most part. I will firmly attest to the truth of that statement; I live on a bordertown (Soo, Michigan) and I visit Canada several dozen time per year. The Canadian people I've met (and there are many) are the salt of the earth, friendly, humorous, and appreciative of my visits.

We need to remember that fact; the vast majority of the Canadian people where I live are NOT representative of their government. They are our friends, and they deserve mutual respect......

I'm with you, I like the Canadians, even some of the French Canadians in Montreal, Quebec, lol.

I loved the article though, its right on target as far as the woozie Canadian governments poor leadership and oh so typical liberal self-hatred (which carries over to hatred of the US). I especially loved this quote from the article:

when was the last time a dictator said, "We'd better not, the Canadians might admonish us"? —

How true! Brave Canadians have died fighting with, and sometimes even for, the United States. But cowardly leaders such as Prime Minister Jean Chrétien make the Country a laughing stock to the worlds murderers, militants, and terrorists. They simple call Canada a "home away from home."
