    This site is better served keeping away from hit-and-run politics. Lots of other places on the net to go and find this kind of sorry, shallow bullshit.

    Thanks Canada for doing it right ;-p

    Of course, Canada wouldn't be able to 'do it right' if the U.S. didn't exist. That's right: the U.S. the sole source of freedom on this planet, despite the cyncial ingratitude of the masses of the world. You may now all bow your heads in a moment of silence to thank the United States of America for your freedom. 'Old' Europe (Hitler). 'New' Europe (Soviet Union). Pacific Rim (Hirohito). The Americas. And the Middle East in this and the next decade. Think about it.

    Except that France's position was that they would veto anything under any circumstance. No conditionals mentioning "inadequate evidence" involved.

    Islamists believe that it's ok for an unelected, unvetted imam to pass death sentences and for his followers to carry them out worldwide including the US and Canada. These people are walking/talking civil liberties violations and unfit for entrance into the US or any other civilized place.

    One of the fundamental jobs of a government is to stop people from violating your civil rights. If Canada is doing a bad job in protecting everybody's civil liberties by letting these people operate in Canada and thus in the NAFTA free travel zone to the US, the US has every right to complain.
