Well what are you waiting for????? If life is so good there then by all
means go. If you can't walk the walk then don't talk the talk. "Sierraman" wrote in message ... "B. Lafferty" wrote in message link.net... If W wins I may be joining my Canadian relatives. I almost went there during the Vietnam conflict. There's a reason why so few came back when amnesty was offered. There's civilization North of the border. Get free healthcare too. The quality is not bad from what I have heard firsthand from people on the ground. I heard there are 45 million folks without healthcare in this country. My health benifits have been steadily drying up year after year. Same with friends who paychecks shrink as their employers take out more and more each year for healthcare insurance. Sweden is the best, but Canada is not bad. On the flip side, America has the best cutting edge care for the rich and the best trama and emergency care, but that doesn't relieve me much if I am dying a slow death. Every year I get older, it keeps looking better all the time. Cheaper drugs too! "Philip W. Moore, Jr." wrote in message ... **** CANADA. We need to revoke their application for statehood. "TritonRider" wrote in message ... From: "Jim Flom" Nah, just keep killing Canadian servicemen like on April 18, 2002 when an F-16 dropped a 250-kilogram laser guided bomb on them in Afghanistan, killing four and injuring eight. Then slap our servicemen on the wrist when they are found not to have followed procedure. JF That was a complete cluster****. How does that compare to Canada spending a lower percentage of their GNP on being able to support UN missions let alone NATO. Canada needs to be booted out of Nato due to it's inability to meet it's treaty obligations. I'm tired of listening to Canadians espousing their superiority when they refuse to put their money where their mouth is. Canadian security is a disaster. The crucified the sniper teams that served in Afghanistan with distinction. They have chosen to support Sharia courts over the protests of women who are scared to death. Show me where I am wrong!

One of my relative in Montréal is a physician who will argue forcefully against the propaganda thrown up in the US by the health care industry--and that's what it is, an industry. |
