Is it "democracy" or the nature and philsophy of the people

Why is Canada so wrong on so many issues? I always think of Canada as America's best friend ( except during Stanley Cup finals if the Rangers are in, otherwise I root for the Devils, Montreal or St. Louis more or less in that order).

Is it a matter of immigration?

Is the CBC a Canadian version of the BBC - staffed by waspy Jew haters and Muslims who work hand in hand with them?

Of all the countries of which I feel badly when they denounce the US , it is Canada that hurts the most.

And Quebec seems even worse than Toronto.

French-Canandian opinions seem more anti-Jewish and anti-Israel.

Being a bit anti-American never bothered me, except when those opinions take side with our most dedicated and profound enemies. Once in Canada, driving with NY State plates we- my pal and I - stopped at a red light and some Quebecans passed by and gave us the thumb- down. I opened the window ( it was winter) and started to talk, went to a cafe and had a great time. There is no real animosity between Canadians and Americans. That is why such dribble about war monger Bush and Christian terror and poor poor Muslims coming from Canada is such nonsense.

How can any person living in the Western Hemisphere who is not a Muslim stooge see eye to eye with the terrorists of the Middle East? RIght now in Iraq, Sunnis are slaughtering Shia and Shia are starting to do the same to them. No one says anything. Not Muslims. Not friends of Muslims. My guess is that when the power swings more to the Shia and the slaughter of Sunnis become much easier and much more frequent, the Sunnis will call time in the hope the Shia don't annihilate them. That will be the end of this terror.

And yet when Israel defends herself, the world explodes. When it comes from an Arab country I expect it.

When it comes from Canada, it really does hurt.
