Shipping to the USA

Dyno;

Alberta has had a great benefit from the Sask. migration out of their province...

Why they honestly believe what they do...
obviously there is nothing I can do about it...

so why do you accuse me of being nasty...? I was being honest... wasn't I?

Obviously there are communist farming areas in Alberta that are far worse than many areas in Sask...do you think?
I have good friends in Sask.... probably more there than anywhere else on planet earth...

Sadly for my Sask. friends... they feel powerless to stop generations of socialist/communist tradition that has caused such problems for them...

North Dakota is much like Sask.... so this problem obviously occurs on both sides of the 49th!

Tom you must have really having a bad day after 9:11. the first time I read any of your stuff was in a post 9:11 blurb you put out saying the USA had just received what they deserved for the crappy foreign policy they have.

Now here you are talking about your biggest and best friends in the whole world.

Tom in general I would rather have the US next to us over any other country in the world. But American Protectionism should be met with Canadian Protectionism point for point.

US Investment is good, but countervailing duties, or tarrifs on exportable energy should be ratched up against restriction on lumber, grain and food imported from Canada.

I am Canadian I am proud to be Canadian. But for all of you out there that really think we would be better off to be American should move down there. Tom it may be time for you to show us all your Old Glory Underware. I think you just may be a closet American

Rain;

I am just a plain old human being... not an alien... not anything but a member of the human race... plain and simple!

I have a very simple conviction... I am to Love my neighbour as my self... and... Greater Love has no-one than this... to lay down his life for his freinds... and since all my neighbours are my friends...

I must treat everyone the same!

Doesn't matter if they are Iraqi, Chinese, Canadian, American, or North Korean... I have the same obligation to every person... no matter where they come from!

I have roots in the US... yes... roots in Sask., Norway, England... the world is a smaller and smaller place every day!

Since we are all God's childern... we need to be considerate for and of each other... and we need to respect and learn... each day... what our purpose on this little planet is all about!

I have not changed my opinion on the evil that happens every day of the week... in every country around our globe...

Non-violence is the only acceptable solution... to our problems... yet violence occurs every day... cause we do not live in a perfect world.

I am required to Love humanity... and look at what is happening from all perspectives... with an open mind!

Hope this helps... Life is complicated no question Rain!

Who is Right, who is Wrong... it many times depends where you are sitting to how you see it!

Interesting Tom, any time you get backed into a corner making an illogical or indefensible arguement you play the religion card, and yes you were being nasty talking about people from SK. they way you did. Just because their ideas are different from yours is it necessary to rain down condemnation on them, is that really constructive? You can't have it both ways one sentence talking about love thy neighbor and then crapping all over anyone with a different view from yourself the next. This tends to render your words and ideas as noise, nothing more, and demonstrates an underlying current of intolerance. I agree with RAIN, it is time for true Canadians to stand up and be counted..as a CANADIAN first and foremost.

Dyno;

Very interesting...

So putting myself, in my neighbour's shoes,(whether in Afganistan after 9-11 or the USA, today) standing and looking from this perspective, is somehow illogical?

I sure hope not!

If we are ever to have a prosperous peaceful world, I can see no other solution... than to seriously consider others and their feelings, and discover why someone is offended or requires something more from us to continue a relationship.

The Privelege to do business with the US, or my neighbour across the fence, is no different. Respect for each other and my neighbour's right to his or her feelings and intentions, is the first step to a peaceful existance.

Hopefully that is what we want and need, isn't it?
