That sounds like Canadian involvement in world politics, if you substitute "Eurotrash" for "Labash." It sounds like Canada's role in the world economy if you substitute "work for their betters in the U.S." for "quotes from Labash" and "work for themselves flensing whales and ushering drunks into hockey arenas" for "original comments."
Here's a flash about Canada to all you geniuses out there: Absent Canadian ballistic steel we would be suffering many more deaths and casualties in the two war zones our GIs are at risk in. We have managed to eliminate virtually all of our steel producing capacity and rely almost entirely on Canadian production to up-armor our military vehicles.
