Very true.
They (the ones who shoot off their mouths) look like a bunch of apes.
But it's not limited to our politicians I can assure you.
Nixon used to call Trudeau "that asshole up north"
Johnson once grabbed Pearson by the suit lapels and physically shook him because Pearson (nobel peace price winner) would not support him in Vietnam.
Pat Buchanan regularly mouths off calling us "Soviet Canukistan" and saying, "Canada is like arthritis, you only notice it when it acts up"
After 911 when Bush gave his famous speach before congress, he didn't mention Canada, didn't mention how there were 100,000 people at a memorial on Parliament Hill given by Chretien, didn't mention how Canadians took travellers stranded into their own homes - Gander Nfld for example.

The man has treated this country like a piece of shit from the get go for some reason. I read in the Globe and Mail that Fox from Mexico feels the exact same way and he and Chretien have actually talked about the issue.
Quite a change when Bill Clinton came to Ottawa and addressed a packed parliament and got a standing ovation.
