    Oh Oh... now you did it. You just gave away Canada's best inside joke.
    And you know that Americans will NOT appreciate the comedy of it all.

    Now we are gonna have to wade thru Robert the Ugly American's rants.

    Americans don't give a rats ass what happens in Canada. I am sure you
    already know that. The reverse is hardly true. You guys lack identity, read
    American newspapers, eat American food, buy American clothes and so it is no
    wonder that anything and everything that happens in the US is considered of
    importance to you. Get a life and find your own country. I know it's boring
    living in a socialist country. One day your government will provide a job to
    all of your making lamp shades so you can read the American newspapers.
    Thanks for spaming all those NG's.

    We know that all too well.

    Part of our identity is that we are not Americans.

    Our media, including newspapers, is head and shoulders above yours.
    When your media reports on the Tour de France all we hear is about
    Lance Armstrong, in Canada we actually get to know who the other
    contending riders are. Same with virtually every facet of your media
    reporting including financial reports, international reports, and even
    your internal affairs reporting. We hear all sides of the story and
    not just the American side of things.

    If you believe that Canadians live to become Americans, you are sorely
    mistaken.

    Get a life and find your own country. I know it's boring

    This last little rant shows just how ignorant and arrogant you are.
    Thanks for making my argument in a way that is much more illustrative
    and to the point than anything I could say.

    Wow. So much anger and hate.

    I bet that really controls you and your life, eh?

    If you just get angrier, I guess you know it's true.

    Everything that happens in the US is considered of importance to us? Well
    yeah, we don't have soldiers getting blown up in Iraq three times a week, so
    it's real gripping news for us.

    Of course this kind of humour arises from the British tradition of
    savage self-parody, which we share with the Brits. Remember the
    British Monty Python Show? And our Codco?

    Our American friends couldn't know Mercer's career is 99 per cent
    scathing parody of Canadian culture, politics and politicians.

    *Four* times a week, not three: the average is 1.7 per day since a smirking
    chimp in a flight-suit declared, more than a year ago, that 'major combat
    operations' were over and that the 'coalition' had 'prevailed'...
