A Voice for Freedom

Another excellent post. Im suprised there are no comments yet.

I hope Albertawan* has a great president.

* In the hopes that Sask breaks away along with Alberta.
 

You've got nothing to worry about. Look how long we've let the French be total jerk offs, and we still vow to protect them.

By the way, I think your country would last longer if invaded than France. You folks like to fight, the French don't know how to fight.
 

It is hard to say that Canadians have an ire towards Americans. In my opinion, Canada, is just playing a role of the competitior. Although Canada can't beat US except on hockey, they still feel honored everytime there is a competition involving Canadians and Americans. I think it is not hate but more of a psychological warfare.
 

I live in the United States( south carolina). To be honest with you. I don't think Americans care if canadians like them or not. They probably do when it comes to making money and politically. But on a social or day to day standpoint the American people could care less. We barely want to talk to each other. For me on a personal note, I like Canada and the residents. I have more fun dating men from Canada than America. They cared more about me than what they could get from me ( if you know what I mean).
 

Well, I am from Texas and my wife is French Canadian. The one thing that totally irritates me is when I watch that CBC news....they seem to teach the rest of Canada how "evil" the U.S. and the president are....

I just wish for once that their government-controlled media could free itself from their own politics and accurately report news as fact. I bet there is not one good story in the Canadian media about the success that is acually happening in rebuilding Iraq (e.g. voting, educational improvements, etc.).

No wonder the Canadians think bad of us....their own sociallistic government won't allow them to think differently.
 

Also to reply to Miss South Carolina....she says that Canadian people are more caring than American...Well, my experience has been different than her's. I have found just as many impolite jerkoffs in Toronto than other American Cities....and I have been to every city. So maybe she has had bad boyfriend experiences in the U.S. compared to good boyfriend experiences in Canada....her luck ( I guess she is a girl).
 

Protect us? What country does the United States protect Canada from? Greenland? Mexico? Canada has as many forces as it needs to protect itself, and this isn't because the States are doing their work. It is just because Canada has no neighbours that would attack her.
The United States should take Canada's example, in some respects: if they settled on simply protecting themselves, rather than starting a costly illegal war in Iraq or forcibly defending (against the will of the local governments) so many regions (including South Korea, to a large extent), then perhaps the Americans could afford health care and a decent quality of life for so many of its suffering citizens!
 

Oh, PLEASE. I am SO tired of hearing that the war in Iraq was "illegal". Show me the treaty that gave up the Americans' sovereign right to bomb that murderous bastard Hussein straight back to the hell that spawned him.

Having experienced healthcare a fair amount in both Canada and the United States, I can assure you that Canada's outlawing of private healthcare (which is unique among the world's democracies, by the way) is about the most inefficient means of providing care ever dreamed up. But I guess some people would rather that everyone get an equal slice of nada than that most people get something decent.

As for who we need protection from: well, who bombed the Toronto transit system? Terrorist nations hate us, too, no matter how loveable we like to think we are.
 

AMEN!
 

canadians do hate Americans. You are right about that. Its the toughts of people line JON PURGASON that made us that way. To be truthful, the only thing i felt sorry about in Sept 11, 2001 was the innocents that were harmed in the WTC. Americans cry "boo hoo, poor me" why? Because someone finally kicked the mighty US in the ass? and expect people to feel sorry for them? screw them! The reason terrorists hate america so much is because America cant keep they're friggin noses out of where it doesnt belong. America attacks Iraq under the pretense that they have weapons of mass destruction. I have yet to see evidence to support that fact. The real reason is one thing, OIL! exchange a few thousand american lives and our prices go up in the market again. Thats a fair trade.

I'll put it this way:
Canadians dont need americans for **IT
Americans need canadians for our resources.
The only bad thing is that america is between Mexico and Canada.
They our not our soldiers in Iraq, They are yours. Kill em all if you want. Dont expect sympathy from us.
WE HATE GEORGE W BUSH!
THANK YOU FOR BOMBING CANADIAN SOLDIERS IN AFGHANISTAN WHEN WE ARE TRYING TO HELP YOU. **** YOU!
ALLY, YEAH RIGHT. WHO NEED'S TERRORISTS WHEN WE HAVE A HARD TIME JUST WATCHING OUR BACKS FROM YOU.
 

Good lord, but I hope you're not an English teacher. I'll see if I can decipher your writing enough to respond to a few points:

1) Terrorists hate the free world. That includes most of Europe, Canada (well, according to them anyway), Australia, and New Zealand as well as the US. The US isn't the only country that's ever been attacked by terrorists, you know.

2) The only country in the middle east with less oil than Iraq is Israel (which has none). If the US had really wanted oil, they would have attacked the Saudis. I love the fact that liberals think Bush is a moron, but was somehow capable of manipulating thirty-some countries into attacking Iraq on falsified evidence because the US could get oil out of the whole endeavor. Oh, and by the way, the oil in Iraq is Iraqi property. Duh.

3) Canadians need the US for the following: defense, a market for resources and goods, a source of goods, resources, and capital, the tourism industry, and an ally who can actually stand our traditionally spineless nature.

4) If Mexico had a border with Canada, we'd have far more numerous problems.

5) I'm interested to see that you think the soldiers in Iraq are "mine"...though I've moved, I was raised in Canada. Know thy enemy.

6) Evidently you do hate Bush. I can't argue with that.

7) Friendly fire happens in war. Somehow when it's Canadians dying accidentally at the hands of an American pilot, it's thought of as intentional, but if Americans are killed by Americans, or Brits by Brits, or Americans by Spaniards, or any other combination, it's a tragic accident.

8) Ally, yes, absolutely right. If the US had any designs against Canada, we'd be taken over in less than five minutes.

So, to put it concisely: shut up, you hate-mongering idiot.
 

Wow, Anonymous ( too chicken sh*t to give his real name)....Canucks don't need us? But we need Canucks? That is a good one. Also....you don't care if your guys get killed in Iraq?

Funny thing is....is that non-spelling socialists like yourself think you are so much smarter than conservative Americans. The fact of the matter is that you hate Americans because America is big and prosperous.

Want to know something else? My Canadian wife thinks guys like you are idiots, because you roll around in your government-controlled media that is anti-Bush, anti-U.S. You spew the same hatred that the media does up there. You have no idea what is going on in this world...except for what you and your tree-hugging hippie friends make up as your reality as you sit in your gourmet coffee shop and dream up B.S. philosophic theories.

God bless the USA and anybody that that does not bash us...so in other words, screw you you non-bathing granola hippy.
 

Good post JB.
 

Taken in five minutes, I like the way americans think they are so tough. Mainly because they have a big military force. The funny thing is that fact didn't help you in Vietnam. A skinny little runt with an AK-47 kicked you in the ass. As for taking Canada in five minutes.....Well i suggest you read your history first before making that comment again. Last time the US went bankrupt, and went all the way to mighty ol' England to ask the king to get the evil Canadians out of New York, Ohio, Pennsilvanya and New Orleans.

I'd like to see the US for once fix they're own problems with out involving other countries. It seems to me that the only reason they feel tough is because someone always comes to do the fighting for them.

As for the american flag, the only thing is good for is TOILET PAPER!
 

By the way, the Canadian soldiers are in afghanistan, not iraq you star spangled p*ssy.

Jon, your last comment was quite good, up until the last sentence. I had to delete it, I'm afraid, because I have a zero-tolerance policy on offensive language (and by that I mean swearing, not saying "black" instead of "African-American"!). Please don't take it personally, and please continue to come back!

And by the way, Anon, if you're talking about the War of 1812, Canada wasn't even a country back then. Technically, the Americans were fighting the British Empire. You think nearly two centuries hasn't made any difference?
 

Well i live in Canada. I'm from Ontario. I don't hate america and i can name lots of other people who dont. Without America our economy would be Sh*t and without Canada, America's would also be crap. Hell, we import and export SO much from eachother. Look at how many american companies are in Canada and how many Canadian companies are in America. Really, I dont hate america at all, lots of people here support america and visit america very often. It isnt what you all think. We as canadians look up to americans and i aint afraid to say that. Our countries are so similar it isn't funny, and the bond between these countries in unlike any other. Yeah, we tease eachother all the time but mostly its just friendly name calling because everyone knows canada and US ARE best friends whether you want to believe it or not.
 

Im Canadian, I dont hate Americans. Lot's of Canadians actually LOVE america.
 

we do need eachother as countries. If there was no border seperating canada and US, you wouldnt be able to tell your in a different country at all thats how close Canada and America resemble themselves. You arent forgetting EVERYONE in both countries (canada/USA) has migrating starting from Europe thousands of years ago and now it is what it is today.. you can walk down the streets of both canada and america and see: Obese people, hockey lovers, chinese, asians, middle eastern, blacks, whites, spanish, europeans, tourists, punks, emos, thugs, criminals, drunken drivers... its all the same. Just different names, different laws. Saying canada is different from usa is like comparing states with eachother. YEAH, their different, but everyone is basically the same. Now to answer the question, I as a canadian dont hate USA or the people and living in ontario i see cars with american tags ALL the time on the roads (hell, I see more cars from other American states then i do see cars travveling from other canadian provinces. I see atleast 10 every day, but also i look aextra hard to find them. Actually if i was to stick my webcam out my window there is a car from Louisiana parked on my street here in Ontario visiting. Ive seen people from just every state (Except hawaii here in canada) so really do we hate eachother? No, its more of a joke we play with eachother because in reality we are SO much alike it is SCARY
 

It's nice to see such attitudes from Ontarians, because to tell you the truth, there's only one I've ever met who didn't have something venomous to say about the United States (and not too many more who didn't have something venomous to say about Alberta, for that matter). Then again, maybe my interest in politics and shall we say...direct...nature tends to bring such attitudes to the forefront in more than a representative proportion.
 

I dont hate america, really. What i hate is the politics. I've always hated that. An example of that is toby keith kicking canadians out of one of his concerts because we dont support the war in iraq. Another is the president of Canadian National Railways, which is american by the way, calling us Snow Niggers. A third and last example is, Garth Brooks donating 1 million us towards keeping canadian cattle out of the states. I have family in United States. Some of my cousins are marines. I even have a cousin who flew missions over north vietnam. I am in the canadian army. Sure, we tease each other and stuff, but in the end all it is is just teasing. The politics aspect of it is the one that is dividing us. Look at the cuban missle crisis. How long has it been since the embargo was imposed? communism is dead the the USSR is no longer a threat but the embargo remains. Hopefully in the future, we can look towards settling our differences in a different manner other than with politics.
 

Canadians secretly loathe themselves and manifest this outwardly in the form of anti-Americanism.

Deep down every Canadian knows that (since the head-of-state of Canada is the Queen of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) Canada is nothing more than a British Crown Colony (on paper at least).

The Canadian Prime Minister is outranked at international summits by the head-of-states of such countries as Swaziland, Tonga and Ecuador because the Canadian Prime Minister is not the Canadian head-of-state.

The Queen of Great Britain and Northern Ireland has the power to dismiss (at both the national and the provincial level) any government of Canada, any and all of its elected representatives and any and all laws. Canadian law give absolute power to the Queen of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Under the adage of "One King, One Country" this makes Canada a Crown Colony and its inhabitants "royal subjects" and not "citizens".

The fact that these powers are not currently enacted does not nullify them. At any time the foreign monarch who is the official head-of-state of Canada can exercise these powers and (if Canada is a "rule-of-law" place) Canadians will have to peacefully accept them.

To avoid the arbitrary rule of a foreign monarch meddling in Canadian affairs, Canadians have the power to change the law and become a bona-fide nation-state.

The fact that Canadians are not interested in doing this indicate the "Peter Pan" nature of the Canadian character. Canadians do not wish to ever grow up politically and take on the responsibilities and difficulties of being a true nation.

So instead they divert themselves with an obsessive attention to the issues, difficulties and problems of the U.S. and pretend that some how they are superior.

All the while they know that the American Revolution was a brilliant success they missed out on and that remaining a "closet colony" under the rule of the monarch of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is (in fact) a shameful thing.

So they loathe themselves and sublimate this loathing into anti-Americanism.

Comments anyone?
 

Anon: I've never heard about ANY of that, but frankly, I can understand Toby getting a bit angry...although he seems to have gotten over it (and rightly so) by a couple summers ago, 'cause I was at a concert and he didn't make a single comment about Canada - or France, for that matter, which we all know is the US favored punching bag these days (again, rightly so). As for the things about CN and Garth Brooks, well, I'm surprised, and appalled at the first but not the second. We've done some pretty ridiculous things to the US in the world of international trade in recent years.

Paul: You didn't say whether you're Canadian, American, or neither. Not that it matters, but it would throw a very different light on your comments. From your comments about the monarchy, I'm guessing you're either a Canadian republican (ie supporter of making Canada a republic) or an American. I, like many Canadians and Brits (and I count myself as both) have a certain fondness for the monarchy while at the same time viewing it as essentially useless.

As for it being self-loathing, perhaps in some. But for the majority, I think it's really just an honest, propaganda-induced superiority complex.
 

You say you have a fondness for the monarchy. Why? The monarchy has no fondness for Canada. Haven't you noticed that the future "King of Canada" has made several recent trips to the U.S. but not to Canada?

Really, what has the monarchy ever done for Canada? It makes no sense for Canadians to sing "God Save the Queen" instead of "God Bless Canada".
 

I really don't think that we (the canadians) hate america, its the choices that their presidents are making that we dislike. and besides, I don't really see why anyone would want to invade Canada anyway. i mean, im canadian, and even i say that it wouldn't really be worth it to invade canada.
 

I, for one, welcome our new ant overlords.
 

I have been reading the comments (because I have experienced consierable prejudice in Edmonton since arriving here 5 months ago and wanted to know why) I am an American. I would just like to say that while everyone seems to have their own ideas on the subject no one seems to just take individuals on their own merit. as an American there are many things I disapprove of in the government, not the least of which is the "supposedly" elected president, be that as it may I think you should look at the individuals, we are not all rednecks or war mongers or even imperialists most of us just try to live our lives and take people as they come to us. And if they are from another land (like Canada) we attempt to learn about them. I am from a very over populated area (L.A.) and really life has enough worries each day for me to spend energy on pre-judging Anyone.
 

You know I get so sick of people arguing that the US is better than Canada or that Canada is better than the US and then spewing crap about one another like they know anything. If you know anything, you would know that while we are under the monarchy, the queen infact only has 1, yes ONE percent power in canada. hardly anything of value! The difference between American Beating britian to establish their own country, and Canada deciding to do it in a peaceful manner does not make us sissys it does not make us weak, it makes us stronger! We don't need to stand up and have the world take notice to feel good about ourselves. we dont go into countries and kill and destroy just because we can. as for trade and economics. Sure we have trade between us, but look at the whole beef thing, we have been surviging quite well on our own since trade in that area has been stopped. The States wants our lumber, the states wants our oil and resources...what is it exactly we want from the states? Sure there are similarities between our countries, but that does not mean we are the same. our entire drive in life is different. We dont have this big "we are the greatest in the world" slogan drilled into us from birth. I married an American and he is disgusted with how the US has become this big world bully and then turns around and slanders countries that think for themselves! ya sure some countries joined the states in their attacks on IRAQ, did the UN agree, did they follow UN laws and protocals? how many ignorant americans think that we live in igloos, with moose in our back yards and have snow all year round? I think the progaganda that is fed to Americans is what creates this void between the two countries. What does one have to be "better" different isn't better or worse, its just different. I could go on and on, but I just get so irritated when someone wants to slander Canadians based on a spelling error, or because we choose not to shoot at every country we can. And who is the smarter country, the one that uses their people to protect their country and others, or the one that says why bother when they will do it for us and put the money elsewhere?
 

As a fellow Canadian of Krafts I am Ashamed to call her Canadian. We as a people are no diffrent then ther "Americans". I as well am married to an American, and it took her to open my eyes to our united cultural bias against the United states. We Canadian like any other industrialized nation ( including the United States) think of ourselfs as better then anyother nation. This is simply wrong. We have gone from a nation of open minded caring citizens to closed minded calous people. We blame the citizens of the United States for the actions of their government and the greedy rich. Are we so deluded are a people ( US and Canada both) that we can't see that this is not a black and white issue.
 

I am an American woman who met a Canadian lady online and we have become friends emailing for 2 years now. Every now and then she gets political and I guess I would like to know what she is talking about. She hates Ronald Reagan with a passion saying he bullied Canada by fishing in their waters and when Canada objected, he said "Too bad, what are you going to do about it?".

Does ANYONE know anything about this and where I could find documented evidence to this account?

Even though she has blasted America to me more than once, I have never said an unkind word about Canada, so I would like to find out the truth about this and if she has her facts straight. I found one page about Reagan wherein 99% of world countries gave him resounding praise at his passing, but of course this could just be because he had "passed".

I would love to hear from anyone about what they know about any of this.

Thanks.
 

Krafts: at first, you say that we shouldn't go around saying one place is better than another...then you spend a rather long paragraph insulting the US from a perspective of almost unbelievable ignorance. "What do we want from the States?" Oh, nothing at all besides...military protection, cultural and material imports, a market for the oil and lumber you mention, foreign investment, a huge fraction of our tourism industry...things like that. As for the US being a "world bully", WHAT exactly is your problem with killing genocidal dictators?? And also, the UN is a treaty organization, not a world government. Look up the difference if you're confused.

Austin: while I get the sense I disagree with you about the US government, I do agree with your point that Canadians, who are generally an open-minded people, become extremely closed-minded when dealing with anything related to the US. I don't know why it is that the average Canadian can accept anyone without question except Americans, but that does unfortunately seem to be the case.

Anon: I know nothing about the suggested fishing debacle, but I do know that much of the free world thanked Reagan for his constant promises to defend anyone in need from communist takeover. Margaret Thatcher, of course, who was a close friend of his, had nothing but good things to say about him at his passing.
 

i'm back...anything new on the topic?
 

first off Canadians hate American government policy not Americans. To say that Canada is a socialist country is not true. The American government has this stupid notion believing that every other country in the world is supposed to be like the US. The Iraq war was about OIL!!!!. If George bush cared so much about the people of Iraq he wouldn't have dropped guided missiles on them. The only reason the Brits followed bush into Iraq is because they didn't want to put of with the whining Canada had to. The reason bush didn't attack Saudi Arabia is because his father had business deals with them about OIL!!! Canada is part of the British empire but still an independent nation that is why we don't have to have our queen to come visit and see if we cleaned our rooms. Yes terrorists attack the free world in general but Canada doesn't go around bothering every nation that has an affiliation with Islam. That is why we don't need the U.S. for defense purposes because Canada does not start a cold war with every nation that speaks Arabic,Urdu or Farsi. the reason why Canada has not had a terrorist attack is because our prime minister doesn't go on t.v. and make threats against Al Qaeda and then does nothing about it. It took the supposed mighty American military to find one man who was hiding in a hole for 2 years. America gave up on Usama Bin laden once they got bored with looking for him. Leaving the rest of the world to clean up America's mess like always. America is like Dennis the menace it always tries to do good but ends up making things five times more worse than they already were. It was the best thing Canada ever did not getting involved in the war in Iraq because that would be one more mess Canada would have to clean up.
 

Hi,

I can say from direct experience living in U.S. for 20 years in different states, the system here is not built for well being of the individuals but for the profit and well being of a few. The labor laws are much stronger in UK, Canada and Auz-land. The expolitation of workers and middle class people is getting worse every year. I have been to Canada several times and can say it is designed with individual's well being in mind. In America greed and exploitation runs the culture and the living conditions are getting worse and worse. For some few this is a good place since they can fish in muddy waters. I personaly prefer a more honest society and thinking seriously about moving to Canada or UK and never looking back.
 

hello 10/2/2007 anonymous....since you are too scared to leave your name....hmmmm let's see - did we convince china to be like us instead of totally communitst (they are still 99 percent)? No...they decided they needed somewhat of an economy.

did we convince iraq? no...we were in there (1) because the u.n. was too chicken s#&t...just like the canadian government was before you got your current prime minister. They let iraq slide by breaking every one of their own rules, one after another. (2) the canucks, the english, and most all of europe 's intelligence said iraq had weapons of mass destruction. (3) al qaeda was in iraq. iraq would give them safe haven. (4) iraq was not directly related to 911....but the war was to fight terrorists that threaten our freedom... you see...i bet you $100 that if the same thing happened in toronto....you guys you react by caving in, creating a totally socialist government (your almost there now), and instead of going after terrorists, you would either wait wait until they attack you again on your soil, or you would try to "understand them better" OOOH! how humane and noble!

You see, the difference between this american and you, the liberal maple leaf is that I would gladly put a pork-soaked bullet between the eyes of a muslim terrorist...and you would sit in your coffee shop trying to justify to yourself that it is the american or christian that is to blame, and the camel jockey is fighting a noble cause.

right?
 

Im only 16 but i watch alot of trailer park boys (off topic) that show in some ways makes America look a little stuck up in my opinion. Ive always liked Canada but you got to think if a country tried to invade you Canada, who's going to be the first there? :)
 

...silence is golden....
 

Oh my god. Another idiot who believes the war in Iraq was about oil. Iraq's oil supplies are TINY compared to any other country in the Middle East (with the exception of Israel). Oil prices in the United States did not go down after the invasion or after the new government of Iraq was established. Where, then, does this "oil war" thing come in?

The vast majority of Iraqi civilians killed since 2003 have been killed by terrorists, and tens of thousands before that were killed by Hussein's government. But of course, if you bothered to know that, you'd have less to blame Bush for, and obviously that would ruin your life, right?

Britain joined the invasion because they've got this thing called GUTS. Canada last demonstrated that in 1939.

As for Anonymous 6/10/07's comment...I don't know where to start. You're obviously one of those people who believes that it's the government's job to take care of everyone. Well, if that's what you think, go live in a socialist country like Canada where labor laws have created an ironic paradise where people who don't bother to do any labor have the government looking out for them.
 

THANK YOU, JB!
 

JB, I read your profile. I appreciate that their are people out there that appreciate what America has to offer. And what is amazing is that you are intelligent enough to come to your conclusions at such a young age. You are among the few that realize that Americans do not feel superior to anybody in the world, because everybody had come to form America. What Americans are truly proud of is the freedom that the country has given us. JB you truly are wise before your years. God bless you.
 

Hello! I would like to apologize to Canada and everywhere else for electing the man who invaded Iraq and commits so many unilateral and stupid acts. I worked very hard to try to elect his opponents and I was literally sick to my stomach when he won each time. I don't blame anyone in Canada if they are nervous about the US and the crazy things we do. I am nervous about the crazy things we do. That doesn't mean I hate my country and it doesn't mean Canadians hate my country.
Bush has a 20% approval rating, which is the same percentage of Americans that think the rapture is imminent. We don't like him either and apparently all those people who voted for him thought he was a different man than he is.
I say that Canadians should speak their mind freely about the US government and Americans should not take it personally when they do. We stick our nose into every corner of the globe, and the people in those corners of the globe have the right to comment on it.
 

I live in a canadian border town... I hear canadians bitching about our war... how its so unjust and we are only in it for the oil.... THEN... every saturday morning they come over and fill up every container they have with our gas cause its cheaper... grow a damn back bone canada and stand up for yourself, or quit bitching about the war and buying our gas. Stay on your own side. We dont care if you like us... we dont need you too.. we have a better society, better military, and better beer.. hahaha... What has canada done recently to prove its worth to the world??? NOTHING.... STAY OUT OF AMERICA IF YOUR GOING TO BITCH ABOUT IT.
 

In the words of an (in)famous american negro......"cain't we all jus getalong?"
 

Uh. I love this blog. :) At the moment, I'm on an Anti-American crusade in my own blog.
 

I am attending an international school in Grenada. For the first time in my life, I have Canadian students for classmates. I never new that our [america] neighbors hated us so much. I know the rest of the world hates America, but I never expected out of the Canadians.
It bothers me to think that so many canadians hate America, becuase I don't think we ever did anything attentionally to yall guys. My classmates go on and on about american politics, and than she asked me, do you even know who the prime minister is? I, of course answer, no, what do I care who is, he is your prime minister. Why do Canadians care so much about our evil politicians? What does it matter to them.
When I look at the two countries I see a strong and conservative (but that's about to change thankyou Obama or Clinton) man/woman ready to protect itself or someone else. Then on the shoulder of this strong figure is their whinny little 4 year old saying "I hate you mommy, I hate you daddy." The strong figure answers back "That's ok sweety, we still will watch out for you."
In all honesty, If Canada was situated over Germany instead of over America, yall would have a lot of people trying to take you over, rest easy in the fact that if that was true, we would be there to protect you.
I think that all of the American bashing Canadians need to listen to Gordon Sinclair's the Americans. You would like him, he is Canadian.
Two last things, if your country hates us so much maybe we should shut down the NAFTA with Canada, and maybe you should march across your little border and do something about. Seriously, if yall hate us so much rally your mighty forces and take us on, you can even bring the little french.
Thank you for your time.
Canada is the french attempt at America!
 

honestly people were is your sense of dignity. I myself am American (Colorado} i dont see why Canadians hate americans so much... i have some good friends from canada, I hate bush just like most of you do but do you ever hear Americans complaining about your Prime minister.. no. MY brother is in the Navy and if i have learned something, defending the world from terrorists is one thing but sharing it with some ignorant canadians like the ones that have complained about Americans is a whole other story.. If you want to let out your anger on your American friends down south than why dont you go to college and play hockey =D.
 

To that faggot talking shit about 9/11:


Die painfully okay? Prefearbly by getting crushed to death in a garbage compactor, by getting your face cut to ribbons with a pocketknife, your head cracked open with a baseball bat, your stomach sliced open and your entrails spilled out, and your eyeballs ripped out of their sockets. *beep* bitch


I would love to kick you hard in the face, breaking it. Then I'd cut your stomach open with a chainsaw, exposing your intestines. Then I'd cut your windpipe in two with a boxcutter. Then I'd tie you to the back of a pickup truck, and drag you, until your useless *beep* corpse was torn to a million *beep* useless, bloody, and gory pieces.

Hopefully you'll get what's coming to you. *beep* bitch
 

It's odd, because I know that a lot of Americans, including myself, genuinely like Canada.
We just have a lot of stuff that others don't, and despite the willingness of the majority of us to share our fortunes with other countries, we are ultimately resented.
It's the classic rivalry between the haves and have nots. The top countries have always ben resented by others, and always will be. If the american finances of America collapsed, and everyone in the US was forced to live in huts while Canadians filled their homes with the big-screen t.v.s, started cruising around in the BMWs and started to build up an armory, then everyone would start to resent Canada.
 

I am a Canadian university student, writing a final paper for a history course on "The Historical Roots of Anti-Americanism in Canada". My mother is American, and even if she was not, I believe in love, compassion, acceptance, and freedom from prejudice, so, genetics aside, I am firmly opposed to anti-Americanism and anti-Canadianism. I stumbled upon this particular blog when researching for my paper, and I have to say, I am sincerely disheartened by the sentiments I have read. I understand the political, economic, and social reasons for these expressions of mutual distrust and distaste, but I am upset nonetheless. When will we all realize that, in hating one another and making life more difficult for one another, we are only postponing all the progress that we so desperately must make? Together, we comprise nearly thirty percent of the world net worth, yet barely five percent of the global population. We have so much potential and I would love to see us live up to it, and fulfill our responsibilities as "developed" nations.

I recognize that for this pacifist, progress-minded, egalitarian post, I will be called a "hippy Canadian who sits around in gourmet coffee shops", and I just hope that those prospective posters see in their words the resentment which is driving our nations apart.

In the words of Abraham Lincoln, "We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection.”
 

Wow I want to sing "We Are the World", gms queens....hippy Canadian...that is kinda catchy, like the song Bitchin' Camaro....

Here is the American: someone who thinks he is no better than anybody else in the world. You find one who does think he is better, I can find 100 Canadians who resent Americans and think that attitude represents us all.

Never apologize for being American.
 

I must say you guys have a pretty cool prime minister.
