So Canada didn't vocally support the intial invasion of Iraq fine. But we have contributed in many other ways. We've contributed food and medical supplies for the people of Iraq. We've also contributed military force to aid the U.S. and Britian as well. I believe several Canadian snipers are going to be recognized by the U.S. military with medals of bravery.
So don't tell me we dont' contribute and don't deserve to BID on the rebuilding of Iraq.
Furthermore . . .
"We need you for what, exactly?
Maple Syrup?
Gobs of pinkish white people invading the South East coast line in February?
A buffer to keep those evil residents of the North Pole from invading? One of them comes anyway every 25th of December."
Please tell me this is a joke. What do you need. Who the HELL do you think powered the U.S during the big power outage. CANADA. We provide the U.S. will lumber, steel, uranium, our fish, not to mention how many planes were re-routed to land in canada during the 9/11 terrorist attact and some of the best damn maple syrup around.
So you can understand I become very defensive and pissed when people make statements like the one above. We've contributed to Iraq in many many ways Canada should be able to BID on these rebuilding contracts.
Cheers,
