I said no such thing. While it might be possible to execute Saddam, the chances of executing him, his sons, and the rest of his associates border on the impossible.
So you're saying YES, it is possible..
I don't think many possibilities were even considered.

This is what infuriates me about people like you. You're never satisfied. No matter what anyone says, or what evidence they present, you'll still disagree.
Why don't you have the guts to come right out and say what you really mean.
You're just anti-American. It's pretty clear from the tone of your posts anyway.
Be a man, step up to the plate and sound off like you've got a pair.
After all, our best and brightest have given thier lives for the better part of a century to maintain that right for you.

haha.. oh boy, you've got my number. What does any of this have to do with satisfaction? What am I witholding? I've said what I want to say. lol.
I talk to Americans all day, every day at work. I take 40-50 calls a day, and the only people I talk to... are Americans. I deal with aggrivated, annoyed people, calling to have assistance fixing a service that always broken, overpriced... and makes you wait on hold for 20 minutes when you call.
I get yelled at, told off, etc on a daily basis. Understandably so, but anyway.. my point is, even after all of that, at the end of the day, I still like Americans just as much as I like Canadians. We're similar people. I don't have anything against Americans. Just you're goverment.
I love how you think you know everything about someone after discussing one paticular topic.

Hold on a second desy where did you get that number anyway? According to this. That was also a week ago. If anything Canadians support joining the US effort at this point more than before.The Ekos Research poll showed 41 per cent of Canadians are against an attack, while 40 per cent remain in favour.Yep, that's the guy Canada elected last election."The prime minister is being dangerously ambiguous as to what Canada's position would be... No one knows where Canada stands. Our allies don't know, our citizens don't know, (Chrétien's) own government doesn't know."

That was the dumbest argument yet. "You really don't know what you're saying!" "I know how their opinion polls are made, because I have friends who work there!" Even more laughable, you want to follow Quebec's lead of the example of what our foreign policy should be? Who here is living in the past again?Originally posted by: AnitaPeterson
Skoorb, dude, you're amazing... unfortunately, not in a good sense. :|
First of all, I really believe that living in the States has twisted your mind. I moved FROM the States to Canada and I found it to be a breath of fresh air...
Second, I really think you are dreaming... Canadians are very much against this war, for two main reasons. One is that they are better informed (your liberal bubble theory is pitiable, you really don't know what you're saying! jeez!) and second because if you look at statistics, Canada has received more than 5 million immigrants since 1970 alone. That's at least a sixth of the total population. And these people have a totally different agenda than what people in Alberta will think. Including a hatred for all these foreign wars.
Also, please be aware that Ontario alone has almost one third of the total Canadian population, and Quebec is one of the most cosmopolitan places in the country (with all the baggage that comes with it). You know, Montreal is a much better place to live in than Toronto...
Dude, you are dangerously naive if you think that the Canadian foreign (and internal) policy should be the same as in the 50's... Think about the fact that a "too close" alliance between U.S. and Canada is smothering for us, Canadians. Your wife said in another thread that she prefers living in Canada to the U.S., and i suspect that it's only money that keeps you in the States. So despite your pro-Americanism, I think we'll see you back here in a couple of years.
And by the way, don't rely on companies like Ekos.... i know how their opinion polls are made, because i have friends who work there.

That's a purely subjective argument. From what anti-war sentiment I've heard from Canadians they most definitely are not more informed - because they still think that the UN was going to get something done. You know what the UN would have done if anything? Approve a second resolution. Well the US is doing what that second resolution would have done.
I don't care about Quebec so let's go with the other number.

Up yours you ignorant !@#$.
You're obviously a reformer/right-wing type. If you don't like our country, GET OUT.

haha. You made the right call, Anita just discredited Skoorb's post by telling him "he doesn't know anything" and that a long-standing member of the Canadian Association of Marketing Research Organizations doesn't conduct its polls properly because "a friend told him so."Originally posted by: Millennium

There is a very simple realization to be made when viewing statements about Quebec. Namely, the PQ is the most isolationist and out of touch with reality government in western civilization. A good number of their consitituents are the same way, but this is all slowly changing. The higher than average level of ignorance digusts many of us. Take it to mean nothing more.

Canadians don't want to go to war
Haven't you figured that out yet?
All polls excluding Quebec are 60% against without UN approval 80% in Quebec
Quit flogging a dead horse, we are out end of story.

I don't know. Any solution that doesn't entail making a country pay for its governments actions.

If you mean get the French Separtists out I hope so.
Right now the Quebec gov't is so interested in creating new separtists they will forgive a large percentage of your student loans if you have a baby within 5 years of graduating university
IF say the Liberals get in and survive a couple of election cycles, the pure French population will continue to dilute to the point in a decade or two it won't be an issue.
Then we have to work on the next growing problem of settling Nativie land claim issues. Treaty Indians get a lot up here and are a growing population base.
BTW a lot of Canadians are fighting in the US armed forces
Treaty Indians have dual citizenship no matter where they are born and dozens have enlisted in the US military and are over there fighting.

No, I mean that anyone who lives here in Canada should LEAVE if they hate it here so much. I'm sick of all the whining.
And your point about the baby money thing is retarded, I don't even see a point in rebutting it.
You sound very ignorant, talking about natives and French Canadians as though they're second-class citizens. Grow up.
