It truly saddens me as a American that so much of the Canadian contribution to world war two and the cold war has been ignored by the so called historians. Thank you to all the Canadians who have served to protect and preserve the America's

Thanks on behalf of my father and uncle's on my mothers side. Look up the Battle of Kap'yong or this guy Leo Major, who liberated a town in Holland by himself. Just saw a show on Leo yesterday, unbelieveable.

I grew up on Lake Erie and the best firecrackers came from Canada. How can we have such tight border restrictions when I know I could boat or walk across the border .... Last time I went to Canada they asked what I was doing, I said I wanted some Haggis ... On the way back they asked how they could tell I was American and I said " By my bad attitude " ...

zipped across both ways ...

I'd try it, but it sounds gross. When I was in India I loved the food, Greece too. Brazilian beef is pretty good too. China,...it's not like the Chinese food here. Some of it you just don't know what you're eating. "Excuse me, what is this?" "Bird". "Oh...what kind of bird?" "BIRD!"
