Open letter to U.S. President
Free Dominion ^ | September 9, 2002 | Three authors

Posted on 09/09/2002 4:03:44 PM PDT by Entropy Squared

The following is an open letter sent to the President of the United States. This was a joint effort amongst the three signatories. It was our desire to let our American cousins know that our Prime Minister's stance on Iraq does not reflect that of all Canadians. There are many of us up here who support the United States in the War on Terrorism, and are willing to state so without reservation.

Open letter to US President

The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500

September 9, 2002

Dear Mr. President,

As the eve of the anniversary of the tragic events of September 11, 2001 approaches, certain Canadian citizens wish to express our support for the US in its War on Terrorism, despite our leader's failure to do so at this crucial juncture.

There comes a time when individuals must speak out when their leaders fail to do so. Mr. President, the leaders of Canada are sitting in dugout not willing to step up to the plate. Mr. President, our Prime Minister's failure to support you against Iraq is not indicative of the minds of all Canadians.

We need to stand united against evil and against those who would wish evil upon us. As Canadians who love our freedom and democracy, we know we must be vigilant in preserving and protecting our freedoms. In the words of John Stewart Mill:

"A People may prefer a free government but if, from indolence, or carelessness, or cowardice, or want of public spirit, they are unequal to the exertions necessary for preserving it . . . . they are unlikely long to enjoy it."

Mr. President we support you and pray for you. May God Bless you and protect you always.

Yours very truly,

Connie Wilkins (aka. Connie) Mark Fournier (aka. Entropy Squared) Liam M Connelly, LL.B, LL.M, MCIarb. Barrister and Solicitor Bar of Alberta (aka. Braveheart)[/i][/b]

As the anniversary of 9/11 approaches my anger grows. My anger eased for about one second in the past year. I apologize for that one second.

Anyone who has been paying attention knows that there is no shortage of good Canadians. Still, such words of reassurance are always welcome. Thank you.

As to M. Chretien and his sort: every village will have its idiots. [Voters here elected WJBC to two terms, QED.]

We cannot ever forget what the Canadians did for our citizens on and after 9-11. You took them in and took care of them until they could come home! (I just wish you had kept Al Gore up there.....LOL)

"Let's roll!" is right. Iraq is the next target, 'next' being the operative word. They aren't the last target.

Our leaders in Canada are Liberal morons, but there are a lot of us commoners up here who know the score.

A speech by Benjamin Netanyahu in Montreal was cancelled today due to 200 anti-Israeli rioters. I would like to officially apologize on behalf of Canada. I apologize to Mr. Netanyahu, I apologize to Israel, I apologize to the free world. Please don't judge all Canadians by the actions of these rioting morons. Most of us Canadians are good people.

The anniversary approaches and my anger grows. It is advised that no one messes with me for the next couple of days.

Why would you apologize? The Montreal cops got an excellent oppotunity to pratice their baton clubbing skills. And they did, too. I'm all for anti-Israeli protests if it helps with police training, especially in Montreal where the cops are psychos.
