PM says Canada will not fight in Iraq

CBC News ^ | 3/17/03

[Winston Churchill III]

Chretien, is too busy dreaming up his great society, which he wants to leave as his legacy, once he moves into retirement after January 2004. His priorities are big social programs, social engineering of Canadian society based on the pathological gay rights agenda, massive funding of day care, expanded health care programs, and multi-culturalism.

Militarism, truth and defense of freedom do not interest the governing liberals. They are aide and abetted by a leftist media elite, in firm control of the country, and preceive themselves invincible due to the split in the conservative center right block between the red-tories of former prime minister Joe Clark, and the Canadian Alliance led by Stephen Harper.

The Canadian public is even more guillible that the Europeans when it comes to matters of international politics, and national security, as they massively parrott the line issues by the majority of the Canadian media, and the Chretien liberals that the Americans are the agressor in this crisis in Iraq. As if the World Trade Center was never attacked !

The true nature of the arsenal of the dictator of Iraq is carefully hidden from the Canadian public, and the media take great pains to expound on any anti-American entertainer's sentiment, but sweep real news and facts concerning the threat Saddam Hussein poses to the global community under the carpet.

Chretien, deserves to get hammered for his cowardly actions by the US in terms of payback when it comes to bi-lateral relations.

��5{��������our support because for some of us this is very upsetting. There is no doubt that Canada needs you guys desperately. I don't know what the hell our PM is thinking. He's a spineless frog who should be on the right side. Its also a slap to Britain. My siblings and I were born in Ontario but my brothers have been US citizens for years. I feel caught in the middle and hurt, embarrassed and ashamed. I am also terribly scared for the future when we really need your support.
Thanks for sympathy.

Why should we be surprised? They won't even put up a fight to keep their baseball team in Montreal (and the team isn't all that bad, either).

I did not "curse" Canada, nor Canadians... I curse--if that word is to be use--the French pigs who are ruining your "reputation" with America. But, that said, do you expect me to believe all the America-bashing coming from Canada is being done soley by French poltroons and their whores?

Don't anyone call for a boycott of Canada until I get back from the fishing trip I've already paid for. The people there have always treated us like royalty. We get 8 days in the cool Canadian wilderness in the middle of August. Where fishin' aint fishin' - it's catchin'. Where the water's so clean you don't even have to filter it to drink it....

I couldn't bear it!!!!

[FreeCanuckistan]

"It's disgraceful"

We need to be heard.

[FreeCanuckistan]

Now I find that I can agree with you.

Americans have plenty of reason to have it 'in' for our Gov't......and frankly, with about half our population.

I still maintain that the excessive Liberalism is our common domestic enemy. That said, I am happier to see 'adults in charge' in Washington, rather than Canada.....for obvious reasons. The longer Republicans stay in power in the USA, the more likely for us to shed the disease of Liberalism.

This is a 'spoiled country' here.....that is still "family" to Americans.....and you've treated us a bit too good.

Well, I like their cedar, I say we chop down their forest and leave them the tundra.

What more can you expect of a former French colony?

[Argus]

To be honest, I feel sorry for the thirty or so Canadian soldiers currently in Kuwait, who will now be ordered to sit in their tent while their comrades go into battle. We should offer immediate entry into the US Army to any Canadian trooper who wishes to defect and join the war.

[FreeCanuckistan]

Not being "onboard" with you is a "blow" to us that are capable of rational thought.

One of the bright sides to the 'war on terror' should be the continual erosion of Liberal ideology.

Things are going to get a lot more 'real', than they are now......and reality and liberalism, don't mix.

[Maeve]

Bump.

[HoustonCurmudgeon]

You've got plenty of work to do......yourselves.

You are correct, and we will be getting to it by weeks end, while Canadians tell themselves how superior they are. While we do not require your help, silence while we do the work would be nice.

Thank you very much.

[goldstategop]

Jean Chretien doesn't want to put his country on the right side of history? The people of Iraq will soon be free, no thanks to Canada.

[FreeCanuckistan]

Yup....that's right.

[Rocky]

Actually, I'm glad. I was afraid that we would have to fight Iraq and Canada at the same time.

[FreeCanuckistan]

You're just itchin' for a fight.....and you came to the right place.

And yes....you also have a serious Liberal problem, or didn't the 2000 election and the Florida 'chad' fiasco, faze you in any way?

Or might the likes of CNN....Al Sharpton....Ted Kennedy.....Pelosi....the Clinton's, make you feel better about yourself?

[HoustonCurmudgeon]

Sure we have a liberal problem, but even most of them have more backbone than Canada, Mexico, France, Germany, China and Russia. Well now that I look at the list it is an odd bunch of twits isn't it?

BTW did you note the 2002 elections that we had since 2000? I mean I know most of your country is still in the 19th or 20th century but you really need to stay informed. BTW y'all still keep the western Souix on reservations?

FYI:

On C-SPAN, Stockwell Day is delivering a stirring address from the opposition front benches excoriating the Canadian government, "estranged from its most important allies".

Stockwell Day: Let us not continue to use the word "unilateral" in this debate.

Stockwell Day quotes Jean Chrétien from January 31, 2003: "Resolution 1441 will authorize military action"
