USATODAY.com - Ugly sentiments sting American tourists '"Man, it was bad," says the Rat Pack-y star of Swingers. "These girls saw us and were kind of flirting, and they kept asking us if we were American. Finally we said, 'Yes,' and they just took off. "One girl turns and says, 'We were hoping you were Canadian.' Canadian? Since when was it cooler to be Canadian?"'

Globe and Mail: Norman Spector 'Of course, it's about oil. So was the first Persian Gulf war against Saddam Hussein. And why else did the Americans, and before them the British and French, penetrate the region in the first place?'
Spector doesn't let anyone off the hook here. The Americans want the oil. They bomb Iraq and protect the Saudis. The French are pushing in the opposite direction but for the same reason. And we Canucks will piously denounce Bush and then end up going along with them because we are so dependent on them.
