Linda,<br><br>Being an American who has lived in Canada since 1992, I can testify to the verity of what this reporter wrote. I too am ashamed of the political, social and spiritual (if there is any) beliefs that govern this country. This is NOT to say that the United States isn't guilty of many gross sins, etc. Yet, I remember vividly being told before coming here, that Canada was about 10-15 years "behind the U.S." in many things. But one of the things Canada is surely far ahead in is lasciviousness and corruption in its government officials, judges etc. I also believe that Canada is just plain stupid as it is biting the hand that feeds it and will surely suffer the consequences for doing so. Again, I am NOT saying that because Canada is so dependent upon the U.S. for its sustenance that it should condone everything the U.S. does. This is clearly untrue. But their constant criticism of the U.S. in so many areas is going to have a negative affect in the long run. It seems that anything that belongs to the U.S., in some Canadian's eyes, is automatically bad and rejected. I can't tell you how often I have myriad comments such as, "We can't adopt that type of health care, car insurance, etc., because that is what the U.S. has. In many people's eyes, being Canadian is being opposed to the United States. [Linked Image]<br><br>Doesn't Canada even have a little common sense?

Hasn't it ever dawned on them that the "muscle-man" might someday decide he's had just about enough and squash them like a bug?
