That poll is clear the Canadians who don't want Canadians to own guns also want Canadians with guns to fight and die for them with guns.

Among others, yeah.I suspect the skew in results for conservatives reflects a concentration of the minority of Canadians who want to be annexed by Americans.
Fair statementBlair, a "lefty"? As the leader who was the face (and prime mover) of "New Labour", he was far from being the stereotypical trade union socialist of the "old" Labour Party. More aptly, a 'new school lefty' - from the right (i.e., posh) schools - in other words, a centrist.

So, apparently, Trump had the Stanley Cup winning team over at the White House yesterday, and did some ribbing that a US team beat Canada and kept the Cup in the US for the 32nd year in a row, vs Canada and they like beating Canada.
Of course, being polite (like all Canadians), nobody pointed out to him that, out of 27 players on that roster, only four were Americans, while 12 were Canadians and 11 were from four different European countries (including four from Finland,same number as Americans on the team, from a country basically 1/60th the population of the USA).
So much for the US beating Canada.

US ‘negotiating’ is starting to morph into the Russian style…bracket hard past anything reasonable and on the other side of the bracket feign blindness to one’s own weakness and vulnerability.There may be no trade deal with the EU (no word on the UK yet) by Monday. Also featuring an incredibly tone deaf response by U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, who also had some comments recently on our own deal with China.
