Do you want to help George Bush by turning Canada into his latest conquest?"
I don't know. Seems to me if the Canadian government didn't spend all of its time trying to stick a finger in the eye of its giant southern neighbor — us — it would be a good thing.
It would be nice if the Canadians worried as much about our border security as we do. It would be nice if Canada's government didn't give sanctuary to terrorists, especially if their main claim to fame is that they have actually killed Americans on the field of battle. It would be nice if Canadians realized we have some sawmills left down here and we have an interest in not seeing them driven out of business. It would be nice if every American effort to make the world safer for Americans and Canadians wasn't met with derision, scorn and condemnation from the Canadian government.
Will we get all that? Maybe not, but I'd settle for even a slightly friendlier tone from our northern neighbors. Even if they still boo our peewee hockey players.
