You do play some mean hockey.  Still does not make up for that poor excuse for a baseball team you have up there.


Montreal hasn't had a baseball team since 2004. Unfortunate, I know.

The way they were playing - not really

Just because I didn't write the article doesn't mean I could not be lying. Whoever wrote the article is irrelevant. It's easy for someone to find something that is not true and post it and be accused of lying. A good example is the conspiracy theories I've seen posted here frequently. Most people don't believe those threads but whoever starts them is not accused of lying. They are told they are crazy or they need to take their medicine. I suppose, thinking about it, I should be glad people are not telling me I forgot to take my medicine.

All I'm saying is when I told the truth people accused me of lying. When I wrote that, I was angry, so I was being sarcastic, very sarcastic, and I thought that sarcasm would be obvious. In a nutshell, I think overall Canadian healthcare is better than American healthcare because it is much less expensive with better results.

What is it about having a better health care system like the rest of world that gives some American people difficulty? I guess it must mean “socialism” and “communism.

I don't agree with both of you. I believe nobody is superior or inferior to anyone else - believing in evolution does that to a person. And I think divine right is ridiculous by the way.

Excuse me, but who the fuck do you think you're kidding? You have for months now been posting one exhibit after another of people who are in your opinion, and in the harshest possible terms, inferior to you in their honesty, inferior to you in their intelligence, inferior to you in their caring for the well being of others, or inferior to you in something else. I'll grant that you may not be the biggest head on the block, but nobody can hold a candle to you for sheer perseverance.

Pssshhh, used to be the American way.  Now they banned automatic assault rifles, we got nothing.  Used to be, live free with a Ma deuce in your driveway or die, now it is be pussies and live longer.  Stupid Canadian mantra, nothing good comes from the not so great white north.

That reminds me about Charlton Hesston.

I will have to remember that in the future.

Given a musket from that war, he held it above his head and said, "I have only five words for you: From my cold, dead hands."

Well that does it then. I'm eating NY Maple Syrup from now on, and not just because it's local.

That's shortsighted at best. Heal 'em up they can be shot again.

The American way, the American Empire is dying, perhaps breaking up from within especially with all this talk of constitutions, tea parties and such, something sure ain't right, but perhaps America has been so concerned about world domination, it has forgotten about the people that are America, surely the health of a nation is so important to provide a healthy country but it seems that has been neglected.

That is actually brilliantly said and the bolded part is a statement that my father has been saying for years about our neighbours to the south. It is reflected in the Walmart culture. Lets get all big and powerful and who cares how many little people we have to crush to get there. The fabric of our society might get destroyed in the process, but we want power!

The bigger they are, the harder they fall.

I was referring to Toronto, but as a Met fan and on behalf of the rest of the 'Repolitans, I thank you for transferring that sacrificial lamb to our nation's capital, it makes travel easier (on a side note, Quebec is the only part of Canada that is worth anything, a white flag to be exact).


Toronto is the safest, cleanest big city in the world. Whats not to like? Ever been to the Canadian Rockies or Thunder Bay?

Statistics Canada would say differently, just within Canada.

No offense, but Toronto is the only Big City in Canada. As well, having the powers of observation I have seen a few Big Cities and felt they weren't as safe or clean as Toronto. Not a Scientific study to be sure and without the "backup" that a critical thinker needs but I don't think I am far afield from the truth.

well, quite frankly many towns I know back in Germany appear to me to safer and cleaner than many cities I went to...one of the regular aspects which make my head shake is that you don't even recycle drink bottles in many parts of your country (thats at least what I experience) and they end up on the streets...one of the things I don't experience much back home and if someone does it there will come one later at some point to pick it up and brings it to the shop to claim the refund for it which you get when you bring back bottles to the shop...

I think you missed my point. I am speaking of Large Populated Centers. Not towns or villages.

Thank You, but although I do not like guns and hope again never to handle one, for the first time ever I think, given the circumstances I believe the US is in, if they have guns, keep them close, for something is coming, the cat will come out of the bag soon, if they do not wake up in time and readjust their mentality. In fact I believe because of the personal ownership of guns, it is so far resisting total control from within, the failure of the American Empire, just like so many other empires that have been and gone before it, but has any empire lasted for such a short time, maybe it is a light that shines twice as bright only lasts half as long.

Who knows even, the current threat from overseas might have been engineered to put security personnel in key locations with the compliance of the mob.
