Canadians down tools for Obama

Hmmph! We got plenty welfare and generational welfare families down here in the good ole USA, and many are immigrants too, including the illegal ones and ungrateful ones.

So that is no excuse. Canada is a great country too, fabulous land, and diverse peoples.

Greatly admire Canadian independence and resourcefulness. met many down in Yuma and Quartize, Arizona -snowbirds. some just as arrogant as many accuse US citizens, but some my best friends.

Though perhaps some of what you say may be valid, Immigrants for the most part like to contribute, though some from African countries may rely on the dole, if you walk downtown eastside of vangroovy and you will be hard pressed to see immigrants panhandling, drugged out or causing havoc, it is the lily white set who are clearly the majority. If there are Immigrants in the downtown eastside causing havoc and judging by the arrests it seems to those from latin american who are small time drug dealers plying their trade, with a smattering of a few Romanians taking the slack in petty theft.  Now dont call me racist on this, those who know me here, know I wouldn't state it, unless I actually witness it in my job, which I do. Mind you the immigrants who do commit these crimes join the longer list of Lily whites who do far worse as well.

HA The Office, I love it!! Thanks for the comments and the laugh Jordan

Unfortunately what you say is true, though Ballard initially had support from Japan, interest waned when new solutions may not have turned as viable as once thought, perhaps even impatient investors may have wanted a quicker return on investment, who knows, bottom line, we failed.

Thanks for the comments Amy, unfortunately hypocrisy rules when it comes to Canadians, when Harper would always state "God Bless Canada" after his speeches and on TV, the lefties and Politically Correct got their knickers in a twist spouting to the media that Canada must separate Church from State, and that Harpers Christian Values have no place in our modern diverse, upbeat Multicultural society, as Harpers words of God Bless Canada are an affront to non christian groups,(Funny though, seems Non Christian Groups had no problem with it)  and Harper should desist from spouting Christian Values, yet when Obama stated the exact same thing yesterday God Bless America, Lefty Canadians, including the media types in Canada moistened their undergarments and heaped praise on Obama, with nary a word of desist, separate Church and State or Obama is an affront to non christians as they did with Harper.  In fact the news was full of Obamarama and the Politically Correct crowd crowing about He has a Dream and Joy O Bliss and other such nonsense as the Lefties tripped over themselves gushing and ooing.  Makes you want to take a baseball bat and slap em upside the head.  Thus this is Canada the land of Hypocrisy!  One can be certain Obama thinks himself a Man first, and Black is most likely farther down his list of what he thinks of himself. Obama was voted in cause of his intelligence, blackness I would like to think played a more minor role, but listening to the Lefties it is like "We put em there!" Cause we are so progressive, oh give me a break. 

Couldn't have said it better myself Marcel. Bang on!  One would think if Canada had a Black Prime Minister, most would not bat an eye, Big Deal Eh! We have a black Governor General, and a Female to boot, as well as a few Black ministers as well, Some dwell on it till the cows come home. We have an Asian Police Chief in Vangroovy, I do not think anyone cares, as long as Jim Chu does the job he was hired to do.

One thing though that I admire about Obama, is he made it perfectly clear in almost every speech he makes and makes it Crystal clear to the American Voter, "We" (Not Obama by himself mind you) all have to pull to together, we are all in this together to make America Great Again Economically, somehow in the coming months, Americans may forget his constant words WE, as many in interviews said Obama (alone) will clear the way and bring America on Course again.  That to me says the American Voter is not listening, Obama said WE!   Many like in Canada want FOR FREE, forgeting that it is the taxpayer who must pay for it, something many I feel ,especially the freeloading Left who always want someone else to pay, they (The Left) like to keep their stuff and hate to part with it in my view, our much hated Carbon Tax is one example when they including the Left wanted the Government to do something about the Environment as once again they were Bandwagon hopping on the Al Gore Hybrid Train.  The government surprisingly listened and implemented a 2 cent carbon tax on gas, well the BC Population Blew a Gasket and Freaked, So you see Hypocrisy Rules, when they find out they want FOR FREE and are upset The FOR FREE FAIRY is nowhere to be found. 

I know Obama will be making some hard choices the Left and Right in the US are ill prepared to pay for.   

Canada should count itself lucky, we are only half a trillion in debt with a trade surplus, Canadians owe around 13 grand each on the half trillion debt, yet the US Taxpayers saddled with a Trade Deficit and approaching close to 11 trillion dollars in National debt, taypayers in the US each stand to owe close to 80 thousand dollars each according to USA Today in June 2008, though I think about 40-50 grand maybe more realistic.

If China , which holds half a trillion dollars of US Bonds  and Saudi Arabia (I think 1 trillion dollars) decides to cash those US Bonds in as well, the US will be in for a world of hurt. Why Americans did not invest in their country and buy US Bonds, I do not know, though recent scandals the stock market, hedge funds and banking maybe a clue, when many of these crooks got away scot free or spent little time in jail.

The US population is aging and will need social services more than ever in the next 4 years, someone has to pay for it, will the Government? US citizens are the Government or a big shareholder money wise.  The For Free Fairy doesn't exist, unless you count your credit, which many rely on, as well as lottery tickets for their freedom 55 .

In ending my diatribe here on Now Public, It is Time to wake up "US and Canada" and get with the program, cause countries we help out financially dont give a diddlers damn about us. 

Time for us as a North American (Canada and USA) people to care for Number 1, if there is some left over we will share it, until then the gravy train has to come to an end.

That includes immigration, until every citizen has a decent standard of living, no more homeless, we can ill afford more mouths to feed and care for from other shores, we also cannot afford to fight others battles on their shores, and become the World's Police Force, as well as give billions in Aid.

 Countries need to fend for themselves and work out their differences, When we help, they (Other countries) hate us, when we do not act they (Other countries) Hate us, as far as I am concerned enough is enough!  We got our own problems, so Deal with it! 

Harsh Reality, but it is you the people who have to foot the bill,. a bill we cannot afford at this time, when our own are doing without and some dying because we choose to assist others from other countries and not our own. So until all debts are cleared in both our countries, we are looking out for Number 1 !

Anyways Dinner is on, gotta eat, back later.
