Most of my time was spent in Toronto but I had the distinct pleasure (NOT!) of traveling to Montreal (pee-ewww) and then to Calgary (not there long enough to form an opinion). Living in MN there are many Canadians here of which one is a husband of a good friend and another is an airhead idiot neighbor. The Hubby goes off the deep end whenever I talk about the Socialist country of the knuckers (heheh!). You have to read this posting, it's just the best. I can't tell you what a screwed up country Canada is, you truly have to experience the place long term to appreciate it's nuttiness. I suppose it would be like living in San Francisco with SF running the US.
This Canadian relished the thought of having Bush "served" a bill of indictment or arrest warrant during the President's visit to Ottawa o/a November 30. He thought this an incredibly clever idea, and spit out the reasons for indicting Bush for "crimes against humanity" -- basically the ones contained in the Walkom column and the Kasich interview, e.g., aggressive war, no UNSC approval, mistreatment of POWs and civilian populations, etc. Fortunately our Diplomad had the presence of mind -- which neither Kasich nor Walkom showed -- of asking, "What do you think the US reaction would be?" Our northern "friend" seemed taken aback by the thought, and confused, said that, well perhaps, we would protest and file something or another in Canadian court, or invoke Bush's sovereign immunity, but that in the end we would have to deal with the issue in court, presumably in a Canadian court. Oh, really?
Oh yeah - If I were Canadian I'd want to torque off the US Citizens even more than many already are with Canadians. See, no comment sense whatsoever!
