Even if the debt of the US is huge, it is still less than Canada's debt as expressbed as the percentage of GDP per capita. The ... |

| I am for more economic integration with the US and the removal of most barriers to trading but I think the border needs to stay.

| A United North America is an idea that scares me. It's not so much that I am anti-American, but the thought of throwing away our nation, our land is outrageous. People should stop putting economic benefit over things such as culture, people and morals. Canada must remain free at all costs. |

$1: He cancelled useless social programs. Now that $1 Billion that was being wasted can be put to better use.
I agree that it seems a lot of the programs cancelled were obsolete.. but I am very concerned when programs like Native Languages and Adult Literacy are canned. That I do not like.  |

| You are the first person ever to spell my name correctly on first try! 8O hehe. One thing that does bother me personally is how some people on the left end of the scale refer to themselves as 'progressive' almost implying that people on the other end of the spectrum are backward or something of the... |

| The conservatives cut 15 programs which were aimed at cutting greenhouse gases, and traded it for some way off targets and consultations, the people want action now. A lot of the programs cut did not work. However, you are right. We all want action now . It's people like you that make me sick. Wher... |

| I've been coming here for a while and have noticed one thing.. the left and right never ever seem to have anything in common. Arctic and Delwin are always bittering against ridenrain and who knows who. Some vote Liberal not matter what, some vote conservative no matter what. When does it end? |
