Sorry Ken. For our Canadian friends. Totally OT

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.

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!

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.

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!

It's not really free. Your taxes pay for it but as you point our, all are
covered. 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.

It's so good up there that they've severely clamped down on immigration.

Too Many Canadians Love to Hate Americans
Marilyn Baker
"...Pathetically, our anti-Americans still avidly watch American movies,
listen to American music, buy American fashions and line up for their triple
lattes at Starbucks. Even as we benefit from American achievements in
medicine, culture, and science, we vociferously object to spending serious
money on our military. And why should we? We count on Americans to keep us
secure. Being Canadian means never having to choose a helicopter. Or pay
full price for a submarine.
"The next time you hear someone bash Americans, ask them which race, sex,
religion or creed they hate the most. Ask them if their pension plan
invests in good old American know-how

.... as provided by good old Americans like Doktor Werner von Braun?

The Sharia courts, supported by a majority of both Muslim men and
women, are optional. Either party can, at any time, choose to forego
the Sharia court and utilize the conventional legal system.
