You Canadians don't have a leg to stand on. How many terrorist do you think call Canada home with your WIDE open door immigration policy? eh?
Not to be rude, but you aren't much better off.
I'm sure you know that the 9/11 perps were in your country for a hell of a long time.
I do agree with you that Canada's immigration policy is suspect at best Eagler, but cracking down on average joe, and the 65+ snowbird crowd (millions of Canadians living in the USA at least 1/2 the year btw) is a move I'd expect from a Clinton-esque government, not the current government, which had my deepest respect until these recent restrictions on us.
Canada worked so well with the USA in Afgahnistan, our troops were heralded by the entire US command, as well as the President, and are credited with saving numerous US troops, and being VERY tough to boot. Hell, even after an F16 nuked a bunch of our guys, the messages sent out by most Canadians was that the pilot shouldn't be punished for doing his job, and it was a toejamty thing that happened in a war zone.
Kind of a crappy way to repay ones allies, although, I can understand if it's a statement of disdain towards Canada's government, as I despise it also.
