I just sent 15 minutes cleaning this thread up. I hope I don't have to come back and delete the entire post. Observe the rules before posting please. Debate the issue but keep the name calling out of it. To me there is no debate here as the original post was nothing to deabate, it just took a wrong turn.

Good call on the editing parts.

What is Canada Day anyway? I was curious if i was right about it being like our forth of july or not.

Im sure its there version of what July 4th is to us.

Correct treedog

The fourth of July signifies your countries independence. It's kind of the same. We just cleberate it as our countries birthday.

Yes we did win the war of 1812. And keep your ignorant, ridiculous 3rd grade comments to yourself. I have had enough of your half brain comments about my country. If you think your so much better, come up here, find me, and we will have a nice conversation on how neighbors should interact. Oh yeah, will a Mod please help this young lad realize what happened to the last guy who spouted off?

Listen you.....

If you knew anything about history you would realize how important Canada was in our defeat of Hitler in WWII. There is no forgetting what they did as our allies. As for their current leadership, well they could take a few lessons from their grandfathers about what it means to be a Canadian.

Watch the language please...Thanks in advance.

The only reason some people on here are bashing Canada is because there pansie asses and wouldnt say they thought Canada was stupid to your face.

canada is like our best friends.....if we need help.....they help.......i would love to live up there one day.......and we would help canada to....

The following was an answer I gave to a question about the relationship between Canada and the United States( and the screwups) since the war on terrorism started.

Maybe this will help figure things out on here. This post is over a year old.

Personally, I have felt that we have let down a real good friend. Sometimes it is a good thing for friends to have a difference of opinions. In my experience,those differences have strengthened those same friendships. Let us hope that this happens in this case.
The majority of Canadians did not agree with the policies of our government on the war. Most of us supported President Bush. I am not too politically minded myself and sometimes I find these things hard to understand.
I would like to add that we are doing our fair share in the fight against terrorism in Afghanistan. We have even lost some soldiers due to a "friendly Fire" incident. Our navy is doing a splendid job patrolling the oceans there. One ship has boarded over 100 vessels in search of contraband and/or terrorists.
We have seen the drop in commercial sales to the U.S. Yes, some people will hold a grudge against us but I would like to see us go past this problem and become the friends that we once were.

So there you have it, one person`s answer on how he feels about the relationship between the Americans and Canadians since the war has started.
