I'm glad to see all those who feel that my rant was warranted.
I'm never one to back down on my opinions, and everyone is welcome to them!
If anyone ever wants to call me a racist for being proud to be from my WASP heritage, so be it, it happens all the time.
I believe in equality for all, just as long as it doesn't impinge on me or the rights of my fellow Canadians.
As to my American and British friends, all I can say is brothers forever. We all share a common heritage, even if you kicked the crap out of the redcoats in 1776, remember we got you back in 1812! Kidding aside, just like a big family at the BBQ, uncle Buck is drunk, so is uncle Joe, we fight, argue etc etc, but when push comes to shove, we come together and fight as one.
As for ponysoldier, all I can say is that I'd probably be the biggest, baddest gun totin' American- Canadian if I lived in a place like you do; where you actually still have some rights...
But alas, I must end today's sermon, head on down to the local Korean owned coffee shop, go get some gas (petrol) at the Esso owned by Lebanese Arabs, and stop by to pickup some goodies at the local corner store, owned by Pakistanis.
At least I drive a Ford and will enjoy my steak and beer this evening...
