This author has nothing better to do than stir the pot. What merit could be had by critisizing Canadian law enforcement when Canada did respond by putting measures in place to make sure that the continent was safe? As a Canadian, I felt horrible to watch the twin towers go down and felt it was part of our responsibility to help to ensure that it was not something that could happen again.
This is something a long time ally does for it's fellow allies. American & Canadians as people have always got along (accept for misbehaving Anonymous Cowards), thank gawd that this is the case. I'm glad to be a part of this kind of understanding between nations. If you look around the world, you can see it's rare.
Needless to say, the author of this story clearly is only one small voice that can be ignored for the sake of the greater good. Perhaps critisizing positive reactions by separate nations should be praised, rather than picked apart and complained about.
Ok, I understand that Wince (Not a typo:), makes sense to open up as wince is the MS answer to real time systems which typically need to have a lot of the kernal source open in order to win customers. The one thing that I think would be a great idea is to open the source to recently made "end-of-life" MS products like Win98/95/NT(?). Small businesses could still get support for them and we get to find out the mess that MS developers code in everyday! Poor MS employees:)
