Barry,

Respectfully, I disagree. I think we are fortunate to have you as our neighbour. Although I detest many of the policies of your government, I also detest many of the policies of my own. (Our sales of asbestos; our growing mistreatment of poor people; the rising 'tide' of Neocon economics, to name a few). That aside, I have (or at least had) a great number of American friends, and friends don't come no better than that. FYI.
