France Takes the Blame, Not Canada (But that could change, fast)

You don't want the eastern Provinces (Ontario and east). They are very liberal or welfare cases. I would offer Statehood to Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia (except for Vancouver ... which is pretty much like socialist Seatle, just north of the border). ;^)

Don't Manitoba & Saskatchewan have avowidly socialist governments?

"Now we have to get lectures from Ottawa about letting the Chinese have a veto (in the UN) on building democracy in Iraq? Get serious."

This is an excellent point and deserves repitition.

But why is your leadership all French?

I'm still trying to answer that question myself, can I get back to you, because frankly, I'm stumped....

Of all the dishonest, dishonorable games to be playing! the Canadian people should be outraged at this horrid abuse of power. Claiming to hold the "moral" high ground, when the REAL motivation is enriching his in-laws.

Is this an impeachable offense in the Great White North?

If so, then Molson's for everyone!

When I was young, my parents read me the children's story of Henny Penny.

Henny Penny kept inviting people to help her make bread. At each step, no one would help grow wheat, harvest it, grind it or bake it into bread. But all turned up when it was done and wanted to eat. Henny Penny ate it in front of them and did not share.

Maybe we can send some copies of that simple children's book to France, Germany, Canada and Russia... See if they get it.

They didn't leave after the shooting start, but remained with the American units. There are 4 Canadian warships participating in MCM operations in the Gulf as war. Things are not always what it seems. Jean Cretin is taking some heat for it.

And they under orders from Ottawa not to turn any fugutive Iraqi leaders over to U.S. forces.

Offensive as the Crouton is, our system is not a Republic. We don't impeach our so called leaders. The only vote we have is one to elect our local Member of Parliament . The party with the most MP's wins and their leader, who doesn't need to be elected by anyone save the party membership, becomes the PM. Of course if he wants to sit in parliament then he needs to be elected as an MP in a riding.

We have long known that the longer the Crouton stuck around the more damage he would do to the Liberal party. They are very strong and will be hard to beat . But knowing that the Clown is actually helping with his own demise has made it easier.

The provincial Liberal party, not the federal one is poised to defeat the PQ (separatists) in Quebec next Monday. This is a good thing if it happens.

Election fraud?

[capitan_refugio]

Correct. For instance, the Premiers of Saskatchewan and Manitoba are from the New Democratic party - which might as well be named the "Socialist Labor Party." I see it as sort of like Iowa. For some reason they keep electing the leftist Senator Harkin, but when polled on the issues, the people are decidedly centrist to right-of-center.

[Beck_isright]

LOL, yes, I was referring in quite a facetious manner. I love the Maritimes and Western provinces. It's too bad we can't ship Ontario and Quebec back to the frogs.

[Beck_isright]

So what's the mood out in Alberta? Are you ready to become state number 51 yet?? LOL.

[Snowyman]

We don't care who you love. Just keep buying that Canadian gasoline that you think comes from Mexico and Venezuela. Canada is more than glad to take your money. Especially Alberta.

[Beck_isright]

Alberta deserves it. Too bad Ottawa steals 70% of the revenue from that province to sponsor their goals in the world Internationale. By the way, just how is that conversion to communism working out up there? Turn in your firearms and get fingerprinted yet?

bump

[Bob J]

Just so I understand, in their zeal to not appear as an American sock puppet, they let the french slide their greasy fingers up their backside?

[Swampmarine]

Qanada. From stalwart to sissy in one generation.

Those Blue-eyed Arabs

O, Canada
You've stepped in it this time.
All of your sheen is turning into slime.
"It's a war for oil," brought your blood to boil,
Now the truth is out, 'twas just a foil.
O Canada, your PM's hands are red.
O Canada, the oil was his instead.         

         


O, Qanada

O, Canada, we missed you in Iraq.
All of your friends were there from down the block.
There were Aussie lads plus your British dad
With the US dropping bombs like mad.
O, Canada, we stood on guard for you.
O, Qanada, the new name fits you, too.  

[Beck_isright]

Just for everyone else on the thread (like me) who missed that other article yesterday in all the plutonium excitment, here is the relevent part of the column that explains Canada's quislings to a T:

"The Western oil company with the closest ties to the late Saddam is France's TotalFinaElf. That's not the curious fact, that's just business as usual in the Fifth Republic. This is the curious fact: As Diane wrote in February and again last week, "Total's biggest shareholder is Montreal's Paul Desmarais, whose youngest son is married to Prime Minister Jean Chrétien's daughter."
