Series, eh?

not to mention while he’s on the ground Soros could engineer a no-confidence vote in Harper, and the caretaker PM might extradite him to The Hague on war crimes charges.

Cheney’s health is not good. Bet that is a bigger issue than this nonsense.

Reporters disease.

“... after a protest outside indeed turned violent and a security guard was choked.”

Why aren’t they ARMED?

Oh, I forgot: it’s Canada. ‘Nuff said.

I had a really nasty experience travelling to Canada 2 years ago. The border guards treated me and my wife like dirt. We were just on a business trip to two customers in Ontario.

We're going to Niagara Falls ("Slowly I turned ...") the end of March.

I'll be damned if I'll set foot in Canada again.

F&^k Yu, Canada!

[MarkBsnr]

Take off, you hoser.

What was the event?

Judging from the comments there, it’s probably the right decision.

Cheney always seemed a cautious man with his own life, if he felt uncomfortable going there it was his call. It is easy to think of Canadians as sort of Americanish Lite but many of them do not really like us all that much. It has been the frozen refuge for those opposed to United States since the Revolution. I had one friend who was descended from Shawnee Indians who went up there because they refused to surrender to the hated United States. Despite the fact that he was of mixed race, was several generations removed from that event and having moved to the United States for economic opportunity, he was pretty critical of this country. I only mention that example because it reflected the feeling of moral superiority I have found in some Canadians which is why I like to poke fun at them on occasion. If we are for it they sometimes sort of oppose it just on principal. Dick Cheney is the great imperialist bogeyman to the self righteous leftists which makes him a magnet for trouble.

He’s probably worried one of these leftwing loones will try to arrest him for war crimes.Something they have said they want to do.
