so you're saying that all of the successful tests were fraudulent? What evidence do you have to base this on?

My point is we are destroying our lands here, Canada may not wish us to destroy theirs. NOR DO WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO. They have the right to say no and we should respect their rights.

Absolutely. they have a right to say "no, we don't want to participate." And then they have to accept the results of that non-cooperation, whatever that may be. Remember the Law of Unintended Consequences...When certain Canadian politicians say "The US Sucks" or it's equivalent, and then the Canadians start not cooperating on things that make both them and us safer, and when terrorists try to infiltrate the US from Canada with nasty stuff and Canadian Law Enforcement doesn't catch them (like what happened in Seattle prior to Y2K), they shouldn't be surprised when Americans start thinking "Maybe the Canadians are not as friendly to us as we thought they were", and when we therefore start acting accordingly, they have no grounds to be surprised or to complain. Friendship is a two-way street, and America doesn't have an obligation to remain friendly to ANYBODY when they tell us to "piss up a rope."
