But this time, they will not win.
Where is their power base? Ontario? Quebec? I have no problem boycotting those two provinces and patronizing the others. Maybe we need a list of businesses to avoid in ONT and QUE and a list of businesses in the rural ones to reward.
There will come a day when the tide will change. Just as it did in America. Canada has to many good people who just got so tied up in this socialistic crap that they are going to have a hard time digging out. But the day shall come when the tide changes.
Weak people always want to blame someone else for their problems.
May they go the way of France, then.
Well, maybe I shouldn't say that. Before I was at all for the wise about the politics of the world, I just assumed Canadians liked us. And in my travels, I was greated warmly by people in Calgary and in Alberta. Montreal was a different story.
In any case, I loved the people of Alberta and some of those I encountered in Quebec.
Out of curiosity, have there ever been polls of Americans and how they think about different countries?
I can't say that I ever disliked Cananda until I began to learn about how much they disliked us. Same thing with France. I disliked the hyperliberalism you saw there and the decline of the church pained and saddened me, but I didn't hold a dislike for them at all.
I guess what I'm saying is that most Americans are going to have fairly positive views of Spain, Italy, and Canada. It just doesn't seem that the feeling is mutual.
A parody of Canada's national anthem, O Canada:
Oh Canada
Le terre du socialiste
True patriot love
for all that would disgust
With prideful hearts we see thee rise,
The true north weak kneed
And bound by every interest group
And the gay community
God keep our land
But please leave us be
O Canada we want some things for free.
O Canada we want some things for free.
a large number of Canadians (40%+) would rather vote for a registered sex offender than a Conservative.
Martin is running against GW Bush, and he will make sure Bush is "on" the ballot. Harper and the Conservatives don't have a prayer.
Then Alberta needs to make a pre-emptive strike. They need to immediatly start talking about seperating if the Libs take it again. They need to start talking about how the country no longer respects them and all they do is steal money from Alberta. They need to emphasise how prosperous the west is compared to the east and talk about the conservative values that has brought that about.
IMHO, the rest of Canada would fall into immediate panic.
I sure hope the Liberals don't win as judging by some of the jingoism, they would like to become the dominant force in the UN, carry out their US bashing on the world stage, and try and impose their values on all of us.
A red herring political trick when you're dealing with stupid people. Blame others to divert attention from your own considerable failings.
