American soldiers are fleeing the Iraq war for Canada -- and U.S. officials may be on their trail. North of the border is no longer the safe haven it was during the Vietnam era.
  • Harper is our Decider

    A lot of Americans, when they think of Canada, think of the three m's - Mounties, Moose and Maple Sugar. We still have them, but now we have something new! We have our own "decider", Vice President, sorry, Prime Minister, Stephen Harper. Harper, a neocon wannabe, elected with the help of Republican consultants, is working hard to destroy Canada as we know it, and remake it into a little America. His greatest hope is to be petted on the head by his lord and master, Bush. Our minister in charge of "Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness", (read Homeland Security) Stockwell Day, a former high school teacher, jet skier and all round moron, has a picture of himself and your dear leader prominently displayed on his office mantelpiece. Stock looks very happy next to his "friend" and co-religionist. He should be. Thanks to the conservatives, Steve, Stock and their friends in the American nazi party, sorry, Republican party, are well on their way to putting the oil sands into American hands and opening up Canada for American colonization. Canada has the second largest oil supplies in the world, more than Venezuela, more than Iran, and more than Iraq. Fortunately there will be no need to invade Canada, as Harper and his friends will gladly give it to you.

    So it is no surprise to me that "we" are not being nice to resistors, "we" don't like them, "we" think that they should be in prison. After all this is a country that just found out that undercover New York city policemen were infiltrating peace groups in Montreal, and we had nothing, NOTHING, to say about it! Our press is becoming as controlled as yours, a huge chunk of our media are owned by one family, the Aspers, who are hard core Zionist Likudniks who never met an Arab who wasn't a terrorist, or terrorist symp. Everyday in the Asper press there is story after story about "the terrorist threat". Some of them are even true! We even have our own little mini Gitmo where we salt Terror suspects away on the basis of some fascist tool called a "security certificate" - secret trials, no you can't see the evidence, no you can't get out, never mind why, shut up! Sound familiar?

    So please don't send us your moral, your ethical, your huddled wretches yearning not to kill children, "we" don't want you. It might make the decider mad, and you might start to kill us too.

    Try Venezuela... it's warmer there.

    Trudeau is dead. Sorry bout that.
