I do not believe the merging of this three nations is a good idea. I wouldn't mind the western half of Canada becoming part of the United States, but the eastern half of Canada and all of Mexico have no idea what is involved in being an America. Nor do they want to know.

It's a very BAD idea and I am strongly against President Bush's proposal that we do this. In fact, I have almost come to regret having voted for him.

Okay, sorry I'm back again. What can I say, but I wanted to share:

I posted this on my blog today:

"Okay, I'll admit it. Anne Bradshaw over at Not Entirely British did a really good thing and I am shamelessly borrowing from her idea of spotlighting the most amazing youth in the world. I think it is incredible what she has done and the youth that are the finalists in her contest are truly amazing. If you haven't gone to her blog yet, read about them and vote, you're going to want to do that as soon as you're done reading mine, submitting a nomination and generally recognizing that I'm the greatest blogger to ever walk the earth . . . all right, all right, you don't have to do that last part. As long as it exists in my mind I'm okay with that.

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, right?

Speaking as a Canadian,

Although Canada would like to have a friendly and open relationship with the states, no part of Canada is interested in becoming part of the states.

Yes western and eastern Canada often don't agree with each other...actually it's more Quebec that doesn't get along with anyone, we still see ourselves and want to retain our own identity and culture. Joining with the states and losing our health care and becoming most likely secondary citizens doesn't appeal to Canadians.

I don't think you have any worries there.

What may happen as the US starts to deteriorate is that we will have illegal Americans coming to Canada.

It wouldn't be the first time.

But I would hope we would be caring enough to take in those who need refuge.

Anna Maria - now, now . . . that's not true. I happen to know that large, large numbers of Western Canadians are participating in huge rallies to sucede from Canada and petition to join the U.S. YOU may not want to, but believe me, tens of thousands of your countrymen do.

Do I think that's the answer? Not necessarily, but I can't blame them.

Again, note my comment in the latest post. Your government is complaining to ours about the influx of illegal Hispanic aliens . . . why? Because they don't want illegal aliens anymore than we do.

Ooops, spelled secede wrong.

The Western Seperatists are interesting in creating their own country.
