hear hear.. Their society is so caught up with monetary matters that they forgot to look after each other..

It is not dead and it has not failed.. God bless Canada for looking after the sick who are less financially fortunate. A stronger private sector would only create competition within our own Canadian health care system. Where do you think all the doctors will go? We need to keep our public hospitals competitive and running

So much for universal health care

I don't think that Ignatieff is a viable solution for the Liberal Party... Maybe he likes dogs instead

ahhhh...

Thank you. That was very reassuring.. Drinking beer, watching hockey and loving kittens - this can only mean that he is more than able to lead the country

No we don't

What happened?

Harper will never win over Quebec.. Also, with Ignatieff leading the Liberals, who knows what will happen to the coalition

I am fine with just saying "Happy Holidays".. But I would be fine with "Merry Christmas" as well. If you truly wish somebody a Merry Christmas, good ahead. If you see your Jewish friend, say Happy Hanukkah

Harper couldn't even get a majority with Dion as the main threat... What makes you think he will be able to get one next time?

Oh yeah, and Rae's days with the NDP weren't exactly the best..

Who knows? Maybe Iggy's liberals will vote on the budget and work with the conservatives..

Well , I like Iggy because he seems pretty level headed compared to Rae. Rae comes off to me as somewhat too partisan, he would never get a long with the conservatives. He's also a pretty intellectual guy, the only thing that people are really saying about him is that hes been in the States for too long..

True.. Some kind of oversight committee could work

The Amero, or what I think should just be called the "dollar" is not a bad idea.. As long as it doesn't end up becoming the NAU..

The Senate is a good federal concept.. We just need to reform it

Nobody cares what your personal views are.. By law, we have something called a majority government and another thing called a minority government. Harper runs a minority government.

Okay, so why do they have to put their lives on the line to prove their loyalty? Tell me, are you planning to join the Canadian Forces or are you too worthy of a Canadian to do so? No need right? You have proven your loyalty by being born in the country.. Actually, it was just luck, it wasn't like you chose your birthplace or anything..

What kind of alternate reality do you live in?

You got all this from the idea of putting government taxes and regulations on prostitution and marijuana? Where did you get crack from? Talk about slippery slope..

Sure, if you think 5 million Canadians out of 33 million Canadians is an astounding majority..

Mr.Canada, while you sit on your ass and type inside this forum.. There are Canadians across the sea, voluntarily fighting to the death for this country. Of course, some of these Canadians were born outside the country. Now tell me this.. How do you think these most honourable Canadians would feel if they knew that, back at home, there are some people who consider them "less Canadian"? What the hell are they fighting for then?

I am obligated to hope that only a very very very select bunch of Canadians believe that being born in the country makes you "more Canadian" or being born outside the country makes you "less Canadian".. That is until Mr.Canada comes up with a sound and logical argument to support this ridiculous assumption.. Unless of course, you think that being sent to Canada "by god" is a very logical statement... and everybody else who was not sent to Canada by this god was out of his grace and was stuck somewhere else..
