Kindly note the header date: "various FR links | 03-17-04 |" and the first derisive reply. Who's laughing now?
Yes, there certainly is a lot about the liberal Canadian government (and Canadian liberals, no less) to suggest the lecturing, attitudinal busybody. Unfortunately for Canada, what used to be a conservative country of conservatives predominant, has since been misled by misguided liberals from the U.S. having moved there because they found open territory and not enough social resistence to what they were offering (and are now).
Canada without imports, hmmm...you'd have, well, not much. It's a sad statement as to Canadian lack of self reliance, and over reliance (by controlling liberal bare-majority or minority barely in office, depending upon what stats you abide by) on wrong influence on others.
I remember earlier times when Canada was actually far more conservative than most of the U.S. Now seems implausible but it did once exist.
"they used a parliamentary maneuver so they wouldnt require a majority.
Son of a gun! I always thought 51 out of a hundred votes was a majority. Guess I'm no good at the new McCain Math.
It's none of Canada's business what the United States does within United States.
Prime Minister Paul Martin is just demonstrating what a complete fool he is.
Again.
This has nothing to do with animals, it's about protecting Canada's growing hold over the North American oil market. When will idiot environuts realize that almost every cause they fight for is manipulated for the sake of someone's pocketbook, not the environment? Unless maybe they already know, and aren't really concerned about the environment after all..
Oh, and if Canada wants to strap on their ice skates and give a shot at invading Alaska, go right ahead, because it's the only way they'll get a say in our business. Hell, we won't even need to worry about it in the continental states, the state National Guard will take care of the Canadian "military" just fine.
The reason Caribou are there is to feed the oil workers.
Canada the Imperialist. Who would have known it would be taken over by the leftist empire too.
It's none of your business, you Cannuck busybody, what we do on our territory. I'd be ashamed to admit I had citizens depending on carribou for their living in 2005.
Incidentally, there are far fewer Americans opposed to drilling ANWAR today than there were when gas was $.89/gal.
Canada? CANADA?!?!
Didn't that used to be a country or something?
I seem to recall Hockey or some 'ice sport' coming from there at one time... long ago.
And the Alaskan native Americans that would be directly affected by the drilling support it.
Who gave those people the right to tell us what we can and cannot do in our own country? We have enough trouble with the environuts and Rats doing that.
"We're not going to give up"? Martin forget his country is half French? "Plunk your magic twanger, Froggie!"
I wasn't aware Canada had any right to tell us what we could do with our property? Is this simliar to their thought they had the right to vote in our elections? LOL
If Canada feels it has a right to say we can't drill, does that mean we have the right to demand they participate in their own missile defense?
Or is Canada going to send their military over here to seize our land, the only way they can determine we cannot drill for oil in our land. No, can't be, 'peaceniks' wouldn't know where their military was to give that order. And I doubt they want to face our military.
maybe they wish to appeal to the revolutionaries on our Supreme Court. Well, they might have some success there since foreign law is apparently the law of the land.
Canada is beginning to make France look moderate in comparison.
I was checking out all the posts to make sure that someone pointed this out. Thanks.

All you ever needed to know about Canaduh is in that link. :)
He doesn't want Americans to drill in an area that they own since it "may" hurt a few animals .... but my Prime Minister allows a seal hunt, which to some is very brutal, in Newfoundland!!!!!
He doesn't want Americans to drill in a sensitive area but allows oil and gas companies to drill in sensitive areas offshore in Newfoundland and also allows supersonic jets to fly over sensitive areas of Laborador according to some!!!!!
My Prime Minister is an a$$hole who should shut his piehole.
Last I checked ANWR was in the U.S. (unless it's not)
If it is, why does anything Canada says matter?
Hell, when does ANYTHING Canada says matter?
......They actually backdoored ANWR, because they never would have had 60 (out of 100) votes, so they used a parliamentary maneuver so they wouldnt require a majority........
Can you believe the new standard???!!! A majority isnt enough anymore with the new filibuster technique...
Thanks, Daschele and Kennedy...
Screw you, Canada.
