Kanuck,
While you and all of us should take pride in our country of residence, don't kid yourself, Canada just an extension of Minnesota. You as a country have no power or influence on any worldly matters. Nobody comes knocking on your door for help, and if you think you can't get shot in Canada then you haven't been to Vancouver.
I, personally, don't think you should have said what you did about 9/11 nor do I approve of the anti African American comments but at least you are posting on a board that still exists in a country where freeedom of speech is allowed. Besides, I went to Newfoundland with an African American friend of mine when we were still in the Marine Corps and I think every Canadian woman in there slept with him at least once. Maybe thats why you Canadian guys don't like black people, they're banging all your chicks. I don't know.
Other than that you and I are cool, you know, as long as you stay in Canada that is.
CHEERS
Hope that helps,
FDC
