CommonSense1stOverParty - I don't like Canadians that trash talk the US either...nor do I like Americans that trash talk Canada just because we also have moonbats up here.
I am both Canadian and American BTW, But more importantly I am Christian and then Conservative. I know who I fight against and it's forces.
Take note Quebec and Ontario the lefts stronghold on the nation of Canada.
The poll suggests that 77 per cent of Quebecers polled primarily blame American foreign policy for the Sept. 11 attacks. The results suggest 57 per cent in Ontario hold a similar view.

free_life, Note that I said earlier: "If there are canadians (french or not) that do like us - well good & thanks- but even if NONE of them did - it wouldn't make me sad one little bit."
I said that to differentiate btwn those canadians I do & do not like. Now "on the whole" right now I don't like canada, however, I reserve the right to make individual decisions per canadian citizen. Also note my tag line in the earlier post, it said "That just gives me another reason not to like canada" NOTICE I didn't say canadians I said the country as a general term. It's like "on the whole" I don't like france, russia, germany, belgium etc but I reserve the right to like INDIVIDUALS from said countries regardless of if I like the country as a whole.
Now poll after poll (from both sides of the political aisle) continue to show that the majority of canadians complain about the USA & blame us for 9/11 (trash talk) & the %'s are even higher among french canadians. Yes, a lot of USA citizens complain about canada but usually the complaints we lodge against it are (1) About them complaining about the USA or (2) In direct response/rebuttal to their criticisms of the USA.
BTW, maybe you should remind THOSE canadians that blame the USA for 9/11 what you said earlier about us being on the "same side" in the WOT b/c apparently more canadians forget that than do USA citizens.
BTW2, The USA does NOT recognize "duel-citizenship". So in the eyes of the USA you are either a canadian citizen or a USA one...so which is it? I don't believe in "duel-citizenship" either b/c IMHO countries are like spouses - you can & should only be loyal to one. Now, it isn't likely the USA & canada will ever go to war vs ea other BUT if they did I certainly wouldn't want anybody that had previously tried to claim "duel-citizenship" fighting in our military b/c I couldn't be sure where their loyalties were.
