Marchione 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 first of all canada does not have a constitution its called the "Charter of rights"something a citizen of the U.S nowlonger has because of the PATRIOT ACT.2nd the lib Gov did get rid for the GST in some parts of canada (eastern canada ) they now have the HST but then again you would know this if you talk out of your mouth not your AZZ.also the Lib goverment was not corrupt it was a few NON elected people that caused the AD scam.however its not like George W Bush has not done things 10 times worse has he ? we also could go into corrupt house and Sen "ELECTED" offical's that have corruption charges pending or emails to 16 year old's.yes sir you just got PWNED Link to post Share on other sites

RodReynolds 87 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Canadian are notoriously stupid, it's true. They say really dumb things all the time. My mom, who is Canadian, thought that Mount Rushmore was a naturally occurring phenomenon. True story. I have a friend who is Canadian, and he can't for the life of him figure out the Feynman rules for even a simple field theory. I had this professor (again, canadian..lol, so stupid) who still doesn't know how consciousness can emerge from material objects. Link to post Share on other sites

Allie 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 2nd the lib Gov did get rid for the GST in some parts of canada (eastern canada ) they now have the HST but then again you would know this if you talk out of your mouth not your AZZ.You're serious right?? The HST is a blended tax. 14%.6% of it is the Federal portion (the Gst portion - 6% like the GST in the rest of Canada), and 8% is the Provincial portion. They didn't "get rid" of the GST. They just combined it with the provincial sales tax to create one tax.Yep, someone's azz is talkin, for sure.also the Lib goverment was not corrupt it was a few NON elected people that caused the AD scam.Bwahahahahahahahahahaaha. Stunned speechless by this one. Just wow. Link to post Share on other sites
JEFFAZ 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 lol...i do like the flames though, i'm from toronto so i can like both oilers and flames...works well cause i hate the esks and stamps (they got beat up good tongiht)You are right. You have freedom of speech and the free will to say moronic things. If you don't like Bush so be it, but you are such a self loathing citizen that you can't own up to being an American while abroad. That is your choice but it is pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites
crazyplaya6 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 last time I checked, we didn't re-elect officials, specifically our head of state, who continuously demonstrates what constitutes a severe intelligence deficiency. I wonder how that reflects on the country who elected him? Just remind me again why you guys invaded Iraq? WMD's right? How's the search for those going by the way? Link to post Share on other sites
mr_english 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 if you have an overnight houseguest, would you appreciate it if all they did was tell you how you run your household wrong? Espcially if their household was screwed up too?I am not an american, but I have lived here for over 15 yrs, I have paid taxes for that same period, I am not freerolling or visiting, I think I have a right to a point of view, you dont have to like it and I dont care. DN is also living here (not an overnight guest) he also has the right to express his views, you dont have to like them, I dont care.I guess bottom line is if you dont like other voicing there opinions just because you disagree with them, then I think YOU are living in the wrong country.Oh and before you get on the "if you dont like it move" rant, I will point out that if everybody took that advice then about half the country would move every four years or so, its a stupid argument made by stupid people.

ShakeZuma 585 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 That's exactly the attitude that makes everyone hate us. Well that and the fact that we do whatever the hell we want and have military stationed in tons of different countries.

fleung22 1 Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 The leader of the Canadian government is appointed by the queen of England, through the governor general (appointed by the queen). And U.S. politics is a joke?...By complaining about something in the U.S., it justifies their national identity of “we are not Americans”, even though so many of them come to the U.S. to make a living, like DN.Woah...what a strange way to introduce yourself to the forum if you are indeed new. Slow down cowboy.Firstly, although the queen and governor general technically how the power of appointment and veto it is not the case in modern practice. The queen strictly acts as a figurehead and doesn't make any real decisions. The people elect whomever they elect and the queen and governor general go through the motions as a traditional gesture. I don't know the exact time since the last veto but trust me...it's been a looooong time.Secondly, I don't think I've ever heard of any Canadian spitting out the phrase or anything like "we are not Americans". That would insinuate that we desire to be everything that Americans are not which is ridiculous. There are so many great things from the U.S. and so much that influences Canadian society which would make that statement absurd.Maybe you're thinking of "Americans are <fill with something negative>" which would be a much more correct statement.Like much of the world there will always be those who comment on those in power. If you haven't realized, the USA is the current global superpower. Canada isn't and so we don't exactly fall into day-to-day conversation outside of our border.Listen, there are a lot of messed up things about Canadian politics like others have already posted. The complaint with Canadian politics could be that nothing really ever gets done. However, Bush and Co. is making decisions for the people whether it's war or this bill removing the right to gamble on line. It kind of walks that line of personal freedom and is upsetting people. I'm no pro with politics in general but people complain all the damn time about politics. I'm really not sure why the complaining startles you or upsets you so much OP. Is it strictly an imigration thing that bugs you? If Daniel was born in the U.S. as opposed to getting his citizenship later would it irritate you less? Daniel doesn't hate America...he hates Bush. To me...it's stupid to hate a Nation. I love or hate individuals. How can anyone possibly lump 100 million people into one identity?Pretty silly IMHO.Happy Thanksgiving my fellow Canadians and may God bless America. Link to post Share on other sites
