Canadians, including most of the so-called conservatives, believe that the only thing that can be done to solve their very serious problems is to rob their neighbours to pay themselves. Well, not the only thing; they'd like to make everything either forbidden or compulsory.
Eastern Canada is a ringside seat at a train wreck. But all the Americans need to do about it is refuse to equip our military (so-called) and, when the terrorists do come and blow up Toronto, decline to come and help them rebuild the city, or bail out their medical personnel who can't handle a normal summer weekend much less a disaster. Just politely tell them that you understood nobody would ever attack Canada because they supported the people who had just blown them up, and you have already committed all your resources.
Thats a bit harsh considering all Canadians did for Americans during 7/11...looking after your citizens who were forced to land on Canadian soil...sending rescue teams to help in New York...rescuing your diplomats when they were trapped in a foreign embassy...we are not all shit heads you know!
