I listened to a Canadian gentleman (unfortunately I didn't catch his
name) on talk radio the other day bemoaning in a most elegant fashion
why Canadians should be ashamed of their politicians' lack of support
for America since America has helped Canada (and other countries) more
than once in the past.  He had a lengthy description of America's good
points (which is not to say that we have no flaws) and recommended that
Canadians rethink their stance.
