How do you like those apples!!

You shouldn't be asking me how I like them apples, you should be asking the Germans, with their 12.4% unemployment rate and less than 1% growth (down from a robust 1.8% in the first two quaters of '04). You should ask the French with their 9.4% unemployment rate, though their growth rate is at is booming at 2.3%, the largest ROG in years.

What, is your 7% unemployment rate not up to European standards? Perhaps if y'all did join, Canada can take some pointers from France on how to bump up a ROG from 1.7%.
