OTTAWA - Pouring rain in Ottawa didn't stop thousands of people from gathering on Parliament Hill Saturday for a rally in support of the US-led war in Iraq.

Those attending said Ottawa should be a more supportive ally, and that Americans need to know at this time that many Canadians support efforts to oust Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.

Several people waved both American and Canadian flags. Some banners showed the two flags intertwined. One banner said, "Thank-you Liberal Party of Canada for shaming our country

thousands of people

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The Canadian people are our good friends. Their politicians are jerks, so are a lot of our politicians.

Maybe after all there is a hope for our northern neibourghs, I may even forgive and forget their winter invasion of our southern states.

Thank you for posting this, CBC must have swallowed hard to report it, the rally had 6 times more people than the organizers expected, and there weren't just "some" US flags, there was a sea of them.
