Just because those sorts of things make me wonder why I love Canada:
1) Today, in my course of International Organizations, a student asked if FoxNews was left-wing...no comment.
2) Another one said that US television was a good means of information...what the fuck?
3) The teacher, even if he was opposed to this by principle, actually lobbied for the adoption by Canada of the US project of Missile Defense System (you know : the stuff that does not work and costs a lot). His argument : from an economic point of view (as Canadian exports go for 85% to the USA), Canada could not afford to refuse such a thing to the USA. The USA does not want Canada to pay, they just want it to morally accept the project...As they represent the main trade partner of Canada, as far as my teacher is concerned, the risk that the USA could economically punish Canada was a good reason for accepting the US "proposition". Who said Canada was a sovereign country?
