    Yes it is time for the world to be equal, and the US to stop selling the American dream. Not all of us are buying it

    I'm not buying the American Dream. But is sure is good to have them as a friend. I generally don't speak ill of my friends.

    Niether do I but I don,t force them to live my way or the highway, or invade them for there oil. Americans really don;t think to respect us just use or country as there back yard. Look at the Northwest passage our oil freetrade was to get that and our water down the road at there terms not ours.

    Brian Mulroney sold us out to the States many years ago while Prime Minister, down to the last drop of water, oil, tree sap; EVERYTHING!

    A friend of mine told me that he was talking to some of his distant relatives in the States, telling them about the fresh air, water, nice blue skies,.... They said that when they wanted it they'd come up and get it!! Like they can take it home with them? NOT!

    So you're saying you don't believe in freedom that allows all citizens and residents to achieve their goals in life through hard work?
    Because that is the American Dream.

    What do you believe in?

    No, I don't think it is. I'm not sure what that philosophy is, but it's very pessimistic.

    What evidence do you have to back up this claim?

    I don't know, how about you look at Financial side, or the manufacturing side, or the housing side your pick. I won't even touch the Lords of war or the oil issue.

    Take a really good look at the basic history of the United States; they have been bullies, cheats, thieves and charlatans for years.

    I'm speaking of the politicians of course, don't even try to talk about the alpha agencies, all their members are brainwashed right out!

    Why is it that every time there is a "Free Trade" negotiation, the U.S. gets what they want and the other partner gets the shaft?

    I do have some U.S. friends, most of them agree with me once I tell them about the Canadian side of the tale.

    Thorn? I believe in CANADA, our diversity, our own freedoms, and I do NOT believe that we need the U.S. to be the "moral compass" of the entire world! Time to be making more of our own shows for our television audiences.
