And I’m not referring to the fact that Prime Minister Harper speaks French.”

But Mustang Bobby…Bush doesn’t even speak ENGLISH!

In the Soviet Union, people, even trusted Party members, who were not part of the KGB were not allowed to take vacations in foreign countries where they spoke the language.

None of the “political” ambassadors seem to have any facility in the language of the country they serve in, unless the language is English.

I read somewhere that the RCMP has been told to no longer share information with the US as we has been classified as not complying with human rights guarantees.

Mr. Wilkins’ comments about the Arar case were arrogant and demeaning to both us and the Canadians. The only reason, aside from his GOP connections, that he got the job as ambassador was because he was the only one Bush knew that had been to Canada; he had once gone to St. Catherine’s to get a two-four.

I suggest Mr. Wilkins go skating on the Rideau Canal. In July.

I am more ashamed every day. In a naive way Americans have loved their country “right or wrong.” Icons like the White House evoked a generally affectionate response. Now I begin to hate even that innocent building because of its occupant.
