Wow. A far ranging discussion considering that there is only one American stirring us up. Hello retsuki, welcome to our little slice of Canada. First off, as I'm sure you know, our sentiment has nothing to do with "Americans" (Montana cattle farmers aside), I have a ton of good friends in the US, even some in Texas. I often disagree with their views but were are still friends,
Countries are different. As de Gaulle said "Countries don't have friends, only interests" And that's the point, just be cause I like Americans doesn't mean I think our country's interests and your country's interests have to align. Currently they don't. So we play a little power game. I don't take it personally.
