The Provinces as High School Students

Evidently not .

Me? Given the situation in Iraq, and before it Lebanon in 1975, we Canadians should be thankful that our history has (more or less) not descended into "sectarian" violence.

IME, English-Canadians - particularly those in Western Canada - are oblivious to the success of Canada as a society, and they wrongly assume it.

In the next few weeks and months, you will see Leftist Americans (Team A) blame Bush Jnr (Team B) for the debacle in Iraq. And you will see Right wing Americans (Team B) blame Obama (Team A) for the debacle. As if Iraq's (or Canada's) divides had anything to do with America.

Here's my message to Americans, and other foreigners: We Canadians are divided, but Americans have never, ever exploited this sectarian divide. (The closest was when Clinton helped Chretien by giving a speech, and Carter allowed Trudeau Snr to speak to Congress.)

Don't be a kill-joy. It was a goofy article and warrants nothing but a goofy discussion.
