Our culture itself has become a homongenized totally consummer oriented thing, we have been had Machjo and had badly by the bankers and the bilkers, there is no hope of positive change for either country untill the people have real democratic power. Under the present rules we will never decide our own cultural expression, do the math 300 million trumps 30 million every time. NASCAR The Grand Ole Opre and cheezeburgers will rule forever if we let them. I say take advantage of the coming depression to isolate Canada from the dying empire to the south. Already we are experiancing the economic contraction and we must retool and reeducate to provide goods and services for Canadians made in Canada by Canadians. The oportunity must not be missed, we can build shoes and manufacture our own cloths and furniture and vehicles and we must have a national energy program but we do not need further integration with American unculture.
In any case fully half the Americans I read want a greatly expanded social safety net including universal medicare and free education anything less than that is nothing, so enjoy the revolution because it is coming, uncle sam already masses resources to crush it.

For sure. Canada needs to either re-negotiate NAFTA from free trade to fare trade or eliminate it.

Every Prime Minister of Canada before Mulroney said that reciprocity (free trade) could not work between Canada and the US because of American manufacturer's greater economy of scale (300 million trumps 30 million).

You're quite welcome - the other post in this thread is also now visible... feel free to pm myself or one of the other mods if any more of your posts don't appear.

Thanks again Zan. I see you posted my duplicate.

But my post from last night that didn't get posted was in reply to Colpy's post at the bottom of the first page of this thread.
