I thought this was an interesting piece from the Canada Day comments by various Star reporters. I am curious as to what others take on it will be.

Loved it - sounded like a road warrior that has not had a vacation since grade three and her take on south africa was bang on.

Her comment on the hog town airport is completely wrong.

It is not number three - it is number one or two depending on how long I have been harrassed by someone in the other two airports who cannot speak english and does not understand I do NOT want his/her dirty hands in my shaving kit.

Toronto airport must have an ordinance that prevents anyone from being involved in security unless they have a heavy accent, do not have manners, usually need a shave and could stand some cleaning up. Oh, and if they would say please and thanks once in a while it would also be real nice.

Otherwise Canada is basically a land of people who are quite faceless and have few redeeming features. Generally speaking canadians stand for very little. Unless of course it is to say "sorry" after being run into by some unruly kid with a cart full of over stuffed suitcases while returning to Hong Kong or Lebanon after exercising their right to free medicare despite never paying a dime in taxes.

Love that free and easy passport.

Borg, I don't think you could 'get' Canada any less. You are very sad indeed. I believe you served the country...and that't supposed to mean that I should respect you....but that's not very likely to happen any time soon if you have an attitude like that.

He seems happier to be in the land of the House of Saud...

He reminds me of this cranky wierdo at Free Dominion I've read on occasion...Edward Kennedy...If you go there(and I recommend very short controlled visists)check out some of his kookiness...
