Geo, you've been welcome company long enough in Canada to know that we are different from Americans.
The person who introduced "socialized medicine" in Canada was voted as our "Person of the 20th Century" so be assured it's here to stay.
Your defeatism concerning opposition to gun control is antithetical to our national consensus to overturn the long-gun registry.
We're the most closely integrated neighbours in the world but have hitherto differed respectfully on many issues. That won't change on Canada's part.
There is precedence of neighbours offering assistance on issues of mutual concern with my correspondence to the NRA and Senator McCain.
Your watching from the front seats at Canada rarely happens. It's welcomed and puzzling, the world totally focussed currently on the antics in Washington.
