Are Americans More Honest Than Canadians?

[Oleg Bach]

Yes I do sense intelligence at the great mapleleafweb. I also am getting a quick sense of comparison to my American friends. This sense is generated by a feeling that perhaps the average Joe six pack and Suzie Honda, may just be more reasonable and than their Canadian counterparts. Maybe I judge to quickly - but there is a rigidness based in elitism in Canada - I am sure that most of your members here are anglo saxon types - mostly upper class and those that don't have to worry about if you will have bus fare tomorrow.

It may just be some of your particular members that irk me - but there is a colonialist supremacey afloat in the air around here. Not a strong smell but a hint. One thing I did notice about the average American was that you could have a millionare on line with a welfare case - a young teenager dealing with a 60 year old artist and all of them coming eventually to a common consensus after heated debate - and all moving on - and all behaving in the spirit of love - what I do know about the way Canada is run - is with a certain victorian coldness - where emotion and love and true loyality to each other as human beings is frowned upon - put simply - I am shock that so-called polite Canadians are actually twice as deceptive and totally a gang of cut throat opportunists.

Having said that - I have always suspected that America really has no influence over the Canadian mind - but it is the reverse - that Canada kicks the crap out of the poor Americans - the way a small nasty boy beats up on the big oalf with the kind and simple heart...you are a cold bunch - and tags like "old cold and bold" - well - you are uncivilized - the discussion regarding your law enforcement officers killing a man out of stupidity shows that money can not really buy brains for hire....I guess YOU JUST CAN'T GET GOOD HELP THESE DAYS..

..If I would have known what I know now about the way Canada was rule and by who it was ruled - I would have fled to THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 30 years ago where I would have had a better life and were my talents would have been utilized and respected instead of crushed by the grand children of bootleggers that hyjacked the system ....I hope you are all offended...you are pitiful..not to mention at least three times as delluded as the American corporate crooks.

First of all I have no problem with Americans, I consider them my brothers in arms. I get tired of the same people blaming the US for all our problems, it's boring and tiresome. Bush isn't smart enough to blame for all that ails Canada as a country. I give that award to the socialist do gooders.

As for this quote: Having said that - I have always suspected that America really has no influence over the Canadian mind - but it is the reverse - that Canada kicks the crap out of the poor Americans - the way a small nasty boy beats up on the big oalf with the kind and simple heart...you are a cold bunch - and tags like "old cold and bold" - well - you are uncivilized - the discussion regarding your law enforcement officers killing a man out of stupidity shows that money can not really buy brains for hire....I guess YOU JUST CAN'T GET GOOD HELP THESE DAYS..

Blaming the cops for the actions of a Criminal is more leftard propaganda, yawn so tiring. They didn't kill him, a state of Dilarium most likely did. Again another assertion by you without all the facts, until I hear the entire case I will not judge those that are only doing their jobs.

For a newbie you sure are full of your own "Sense of Importance", at least you could take the time to get to know the posters before you sully this forum with baseless trite assumptions. On a side note, a wise proffessor once told me those that to make an assumption is to "Assume" and that makes an ASS of one's self. As for uncivilized excuse me if I don't cry me a river over a man that dies whilst committing a summary offense. Regarding stupidity, they were doing their jobs. If you don't like it PM your MP, don't blame the police for using the tools our government gave them.

God this communist crap makes me ill.

My intention was not blaming cops - but the poor useless managerial types who put the new policy together for the hiring of compliant and controlable idots that they are fool hardy enough to trust to serve the population and ensure a truel civil society...I have nothing against cops. I respect the rule of law and respect law enforcement officers - it's just that the change in the police force in our nation to postions akin to janitors srapping up the mess created orignially by jerks with to much power and not enough brains - How can it be that such stupid people have gained control? The only thing I can think of is good old fashioned incrimental corruption.

Your an idot - a simpleton and the use of words like "sully" sound corny and dated...as far as being new or old - what did I do - fall backward in time and end up in the twilight zone - an episode where the character wakes up in the decayed shell of the frinking Granite Club and listens to the voices of bygone days of some former elitist glory....like I said - I am not impressed.

Oleg, I must say your habit of quoting yourself is a bit disconcerting ... I believe you just called yourself an idiot!

Very confusing!

And gee, you are painting all Canadians with a very broad brush, when you seem to be talking about only the posters here. I must remind you that this is a 'conservative' board populated mostly by those extremely so ... or extremely young. If you are looking for the kinder gentler Canadians, believe me you generally won't find them here: Here you find the ones who will kick someone when they are down, or roll right over them to get to a meeting faster if there is a buck to be made. These people exist in every country. They are so close to 'white supremacists' in their superior attitude that it is sometimes impossible to make the distinction between that and conservatism. It takes a few posters like me here occasionally to remind them that they are only a narrow and extreme little cell in a much broader and smarter population, most of whom don't spend their time on a discussion board (unless they are retired like me! )

Until the investigation is done, we really don't know the WHOLE story, part of it, which I just heard today was the guy had been there for a very long time and when the cops came in, the airport officials were worried about another plane was coming in and unloading so they didn't want to have the passengers see this guy and so they asked cops to hurray and end it. The guy was sweating, so it may be that he needed mediciation or was having a panic attack. I, also would like to asked why DID you chosed Canada over the US??

I must remind you that this is a 'conservative' board populated mostly by those extremely so ... . They are so close to 'white supremacists' in their superior attitude that it is sometimes impossible to make the distinction between that and conservatism.

'WHITE SUPREMACISTS" on this board?

And, Jennie-Saga-Jen, you came to this conclusion when you decided to grace this board so recently with your 'one-issue' presence? Because there are several posters who fail to be impressed with your verbose and strident advocacy for your cause? How many other 'conservative', liberal and boards such as babble, etc. have the posters reacted to your attempts to TEACH them about the Six Nations problems with the white man in even more offensive language than have the few posters on this board? How was your reception by the posters of Free Dominion by the way, Saga?

It takes a few posters like me here occasionally to remind them that they are only a narrow and extreme little cell in a much broader and smarter population, most of whom don't spend their time on a discussion board (unless they are retired like me! )

Oh, really? Jennie-Jen-Saga [and all of the other aliases you use on all of the Canadian message boards,] made the decision to join this board to remind the posters here how much smarter you are than them? Whatever gave you the impression Granny that since you believe yourself so apolitical, neutral, objective and all-knowing that the posters here, especially those whom you identify as 'white supremacists' are so lacking in intellect/intuition that they would be unable to spot you as a flaming ultra-left wing chauvinist? As well as the newbie poster whose first few posts were liberally sprinkled with the tired old Racist label when responding to posters who deigned to disagree with you.

It appears obvious why you came to this board. All of the other Canadian boards are bored to the extreme with the obsessive rants and ravings and preachings of the one-issue SAGA.

It's so odd that me - the bunkin fell in by accident amoung these educated people...went back in time and did my research...you folks are all real bight and accredited people - Is there a place here of a grade 9 drop out? Just wondering if life experience and a totally uninstitutional attitude will be useful - I could bore you to tears or vise vera..still - I have learned a lot in 50 years that perhaps you missed...what say you - can I be an honourary member? Being a tad funny ---- not often I have to show respect --- maybe it's time to give more?

[Moxie]

Or maybe you could stop being so condesending and get to know us before you release your "Unique" brand of posting. I've jigged cod that didn't flop around the deck as much as you do, calm down and get to know us before you judge us.

I may not be as old as you but I've lived all over Canada, been all over Europe and traveled to most states in the US. Can I learn from you? Yes, but the same can be said for my one year old niece. It's called dialog and listening and candyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Jenny, You sure are an opinionated sort with almost 1000 posts in two months. You need to go back to work. You absolutely do not have enough to occupy yourself. My opinion is the board is fairly balanced in ideological makeup, and that the people who populate the boards are in general smarter than the general population, although some more than others. With only two months of participation, your opinion is biased to a relatively short period of time.

Hey don't it say non-partisan? No left or right but bright centralist and radical moderates - oh yah - it's Alberta right. Thought you guys seperated from the rest of the nation and joined the states. Odd how Canada has two countries stuck in it's guts that it needs to vomit up - Quebec and Alberta..talk about a body with some misfiting parts. Oh well - Washington loves the corporates in Alberta ...and yah...what is the difference between neo-con artists and conservatives ? Come on now - there are no conservatives left in the nation..just neo this and that - but the neos are not that new just real old greed and dominance do to an inferiourity complex generated by haveing to much money and no real talent other than keeping the money out of the hands of the talented..worked for Stalin and Rockerfella.

Huh? It sounds like you are one of the angry poor talented, jealous of the richer, stupider brothernlaw. In fact, it is probably a pattern in your life, blame the other guy while you wallow in your beer or keyboard.

I wallo in gin - yep - you pegged me - I do have not a brother in law but a brother who is much more stupid - much more rich - much more anxious - It's not a case of jealousy - it is a case of wasted resourses. I see the not so smart rich - not knowing what to do with the power contained in money - and they really don't like me much because they know I am a bit more aware and am richer than them in many many ways - so It is I that am held in loathing and contempt by these and it's me they envy - I have power - I have talent and they have the bag of gold. For them to part with a smidgen of gold is unthinkable..for without the money they would be digging a ditch and sitting in the local watering hole....who ever has a parent that plundered and harmed and stole - and did not pay taxes but accumulated loads of lucre - gave their children and grand children the stolen privledge to dominate their superiours with a few bucks - bitter you say? Nope - just a bit disgusted that the sons of theives and those willing to harm others for wealth lord over me - actaully it's more of an insult/

[White Doors]

Nah, I'd say that's bitter.

haha

[Oleg Bach]

Nah, I'd say that's bitter.

haha

The universe is all about me - did I hear someone call my name---my ears perked up when I heard the world bitter.

[White Doors]

yes, I would also gander that you are self involved as well.

[Oleg Bach]

yes, I would also gander that you are self involved as well.

Who else is there to involved my self with? There has been no formal invitation from you thus far. All people are primarily involved mostly with one individual they know and love - Them selves! WE are no exception.

You give the impression that you are continually drunk, as in bar stool drunk. Just give you the bait and gulp. You are too easy.

[Higgly]

Who let the dogs out?

[Topaz]

Are American politicans more honest than Canadians???? Boy this is hard one put I think Bush and Cheney, come out far ahead other politicans in the world. Finally Harper doesn't look that bad!!!

[AngusThermopyle]

and did not pay taxes but accumulated loads of lucre

Rather ironic I think, coming as it does from the guy who complains his life was ruined because he didn't pay taxes.

[Brain Candy]

Id say we share the same problems but they tackle some of the more controversial topics with a little more bravo. When is the last time a politician discussed immigration in Canada?
