Most from the US really do not think of anything beyond their borders unless it pisses them off. Relax. Just about everyone here is cool with you, OT hotheads excepted of course. I may get up to Canada late in the summer, and I have no plans to change that. I bet for every person spouting off here there are ten looking a bit embarrassed about the one, as if Billy Carter were discovered to be a blood relative.

Canadians are like a crazy, backwards uncle who you are pretty embarrassed to be seen with, but at the end of the day they are still family.....

Some of my friends are in Canada and when i visited Canada i must say that i enjoyed it. Glacier National Park/Waterton (i think is the canadian term for it) was unbelievable. If Canada would throw out the devils measurement (the metric system) and standardize their currency with the US then they would be even better.

Metric makes a hell of a lot more sense than our system. For what it is worth we actually screwed Canada since we were supposed to switch over to metric together but we backed out at the last minute.

I think we could invade and take over Canada in half the time it it will take to do Iraq. -JK
You guys tried that back in 1812.....and lost. We also burned down the Whitehouse (Battle of Bladensburg).

In practice most Americans *don't* think about Canada, just as I imagine most Canadians don't bother thinking about the U.S. either. We all have our own problems to deal with both at home and abroad.

At any rate, it hardly matters what Americans think of Canada or vice versa. We are joined at the hip come what may, so that's that. Any talk of retaliation is asinine.

We have been frequent visitors to Canada but no more. Your country could have just said that they wanted to remain neutral and above the frey but that did not happen with your NO digit IQ. You have every right to whine but I have every right not to give your business any of my money. Live with it.

I didn't think much of their allowing draft dodgers to hide there during Viet Nam conflict & It just sort of makes sense that they won't support the war effort...

I could really care less about Canada...

The vocal anti war-folks from there are irritating, but so are the anti-war folks here.

A few more international trade laws & Canada may as well become our 51st state, we'd even let Quebec be it's own country

I think Canada has every right to voice its own opinion and Americans can respond to that
option however they would like.

What I find amusing is that Candiens have just as high opinion of themselves as
Americans do. Yet they fault Americans for that high opinion.

Personally I have yet to visit or live in a country in which the local populace did *NOT* think of themselves as the Greatest People on the Face of the Earth, so it's always funny to see people accusing other nationalities of arrogance. That goes for Canadians reprimanding Americans, Americans squabbling with the French, and so on.
