They don't need one. No other country could possibly want it.

I dunno, a pro-US government takeover  might see the US standing on the sidelines.

The only problem with Canada it that they have those disgusting, arrogant, people of French extraction, who wear berets and who post entirely too much on message boards.  French people, ick, ick, ick!  (Volrath ssssh!)  :-)

This is an ongoing joke.  If you check my profile, you'll find I'm of French extraction; the joke is about me.  :-)

Volrath got caught in it yesterday, and jumped to the defense of the oppressed French folk, which he didn't realize included me.  It an inside joke.

Not as bad as you would think. I'm not from Quebec really. My family is originally from here, and I attend college here at the moment, but until a couple of months ago I had never lived outside of Ontario.

My father worked for the Progressive Conservative Party my whole life, so I'm a natural ally of the Republicans. That's why I grew up in Ottawa, instead of in Quebec.

I think prior to the war in Iraq a poll was taken of the Anglophone provinces and a majority of those polled supported the war. Now, that has obviously changed, but when Americans see polls that say a majority of Canadians think America is evil, they need to consider that Quebec is the second most populous province in the country.

To hijack this thread back to Fiji.  Fiji isn't joining the coalition.  They will be there only to protect the UN there and nothing more.

polls never showed that Canada supported the war in Iraq. Not in anglophone Canada and (obviously) not in Francophone Canada. I've talked to people who really hate Chretien, and I mention about him saying no to the war, and they always go "oh well, he did ONE good thing I guess".  I have never met any one in Canada who is pro-war, and no one who is pro-Bush. And if I do, I will alert CSIS imediately. LOL
