We Canadians are more passive. If we oppose the war, we won't take to the streets and protest, we'd rather sit at home and yell at the t.v. One thing about us canucks is that we stick together till the end. There is NO WAY we're pulling out of Afghanistan, ain't happening. If the Tories allow that to happen "democratically" then they will NOT be in power next election.

Our system is too strong for AQ to plan any sort of an attack on our soil. Ya'll remember the AQ wannabies in Mississauga? We caught them with ammonium nitrate fertilizer, which usually goes UNDETECTED in MOST countries. I thank our police for a great job in preventing something that was supposedly going to be more disasterous than the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

An attack on our soil won't cause us to cave in and abort the mission, it will bring us closer like it did to New Yorkers and we will COMMIT to the ongoing mission and FORCE our government to take a more active role in WOT. We may be hockey fans, but when it comes to our freedom and life we'll drop the gloves and kick some serious butt.

For the Americans who dream of extending their terrority by taking over ours, IT'S NOT HAPPENING.

Stephen Dion

Dion is a little "nerdy" looking guy with glasses. Extremely intelligent, however, he lacks personality, humor and charisma. He was a cabinet minister that you never heard of during the Chretien years...He is a "veteran" of politics, yet..you never heard of him (unless you live in Quebec..clarity act ring a bell?) before he entered the Liberal leadership race.

The newspapers draw him wearing a polar bear head on his head, and wearing something that resembles the green giant's green spandex...(a jab at his "greener than greeness" when it comes to the environment)....oh and he has a small yappy dog named "koyoto".

The Conservatives ran attack ad after attack ad, even though there was no election in site....just slamming Dion's lack of leadership abilities....and Dion took it like a champ and did nothing.

The conservative have had about 3 or so confidence votes..in all of them. Dion whipped the liberal party into abstaining..... or in the latest vote, walking out of the commons. Under Dion, the Liberals are basically sitting on there hands instead of doing what a proper official opposition does...oppose!!

During the Quebec Provincial Elections, Dion's Liberals lost 3 key seats...including a long time Liberal holdout in Quebec. Quebecers are choosing the Conservatives for the party of Federalism in that province!! ...hell must have frozen over!!

Yet, even after all this...Dion still refuses to do whats best for his party and step down. And let a more capable person lead the party. I would like to see Ignatief lead the party. I agree with him on some points...and I think that he is a leader, not a spineless clod like Dion.

CTV.ca | Senate will pass Tory crime bill: top Grit senator

So the senate will pass the Crime bill by March 1st... this is good.

Lets see if Dion will sit on his hands for the Afghanistan, and Budget vote.

I personally think Canada is a wonderful place, But I would not want to live there. No American's I know personally wants to take over Canada. All that being said, President Bush and his cronies in crime in Mexico and Canada have been hatching a plan to merge the three countries into one.
It's a liberal idea as well, which in my thinking proves the liberalizing of the Republican Has taken place by the Bush administration. And I do not know Mr. Bush personally, but he is no conservative...Not by a long shot.

If Canada and America, meaning the voting populace of each country agreed to a merger I might consider the possibility as long as we use the American Constitution to live by. If not...nothing doin'.

I Love you Kanuck's


Sincerely,
Ivan
