And this is why Canada sucks!!!

[OysterBoy]

As well meaning as your post was, lunchbox... it really did not help the 'Canadians are not morons' argument :/

[Steelrat]

I for one would proud to live in this country if we were understanding enough to pardon everyone in our prisons.

Please please please tell me that was a joke.

[1stdeadeye]

Honestly. A thread is started that lumps Canadians into one bunch and then belittles the death of soldiers and proclaims hatred of us, and Canadians have to play nice with you?

Hold on there! I started this thread as a goof! Hence the use of smilies!

To use the words of FactsOfLife;"Simmah Down Now!!!!"

Taylor turned it harsh!

guys stop flaming i think the statue is stupid and im canadian i didnt have a say in it if you wish you can start a patition and send it to the goverment they have to bring it up during the next commfrence and maybe they will do something about it we are all human beings who cares where we live i live across a lake from the USA.

What Oysterboy said!

[FactsOfLife]

Want to have a competition of which country has the most yahoo idiots? Considering California has a bigger population than Canada, I think the US beats in shear numbers of looney bin candidates living on the left coast.

per capita? you win.

This post makes me sad. really it does. I hope I never have to serve with some of you.
As for draft-dodgers I have no care for them. If you are too selfish to think others before yourself then you are nothing to me. I have had family that participated in every American war since WWII. Guam was one of the battle grounds in WWII look at the movie Codetalkers(NS of the title). And Guam has the highest per captia of casualties in Vietnam. I have had family fight in the Korean war, Panama, Kuwait, Iraq, Somalia, Iraq again, and the Horn of Africa. When I graduate from college and join the military I will be proud to fight. And I will not ake anything from anyone who is too scared to fight with me.

some of the posts in this thread were very childish. im only sixteen, i was born i canada but ive been in the U.S. for 6 years now all my friends are american and i love it here. but that comment about the american pilot bombing the canadian soldiers was uncalled for my uncle serves in that unit and he has nothing against americans but he is just a litlle sad about the loss of his friends. that was uncalled for.

canadian people are practically identical to american people maybe they talk different and some were brought up different but they think the same things about this war. ive talked to dozens of people from both sides of the border and the two countries should be one by the way the people talk about international politics.

and the town that is doing this monument is like a hippy colony they have them here in the states too we just never hear about them or the stuff they do.

Now they have someone celebrating those cowards.

i think the statue was made to commemerate that we have a free country. its not glorifying draft dodgers, its celebrating that all of our citizens, immigrant or born citizen, have equal opportunities. the point is: we dont shut people out (unless they are trying to illegally immigrate), we're a free country.

but that comment about the american pilot bombing the canadian soldiers was uncalled for my uncle serves in that unit and he has nothing against americans but he is just a litlle sad about the loss of his friends. that was uncalled for.

i whole heartedly agree. that was an awful, awful comment. i dont remember who posted that, but whoever it was: you are an awful person. please dont ever say anything remotely like that again.

Please please please tell me that was a joke.

I thought that went without saying.

[LunchBox89]

[ScatterPlot]

Dude, you guys need to remember how good Canada did in WW2. They sent troops in, and BOTH of them survived.

Hey guys, I have no desire to get involved in the petty bickering and accusation throwing. I would just like to point out that all theese comments have gotten out of hand and do not deal with the topic at hand.

Personally I think there are TONS of IDIOTS on BOTH sides of the border, heck most of them work at the border(Damn customs agents, gimmie my stuff!) To say that one nationality is better/worse than the other, is childish at best.
