MervGriffin Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 It's especially irritating to find some Canadians on this site pissing all over Ronald Reagan. Few Americans or anyone else in the world could probably even name the prime minister of that geopolitical powerhouse and economic marvel located somewhere north of us, and there is a reason for that. Canada has been riding America's coat-tails for decades and should be grateful that the likes of Ronald Reagan have allowed them to "flourish" relatively unmolested. So here's to Ronald Reagan, a great American: R.I.P. Ronnie Quote
Dru Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2004/06/07/canada/mulroney_reagan040607 merv griffin and brian mulroney to be celebrity pallbearers; lets not forget that it was under reagan that the War on Drugs phrase was coined.... at the same time the CIA became involved in cocaine smuggling, and workplace urine testing was first brought in... maybe all this pissing on the grave stuff has direct relevance!

MervGriffin Posted June 7, 2004 Author Posted June 7, 2004 "...and workplace urine testing was first brought in..." Sounds like you guys need it! Keep on coastin', Canada! Quote
Beck Posted June 8, 2004 Posted June 8, 2004 Trudeau's wife helped set up Canada's drug testing program....she tested them, and they were GOOD. Quote

Double_E Posted June 8, 2004 Posted June 8, 2004 It's especially irritating to find some Canadians on this site pissing all over Ronald Reagan. look you moron, they have just as much right to piss on Reagan's name as we Yanks do. any human has a right to piss on any country's head-of-state. something tells my you're the type who loves to piss on the French, since they, in their obstinace and smugness about the Iraq conflict, forgot that we liberated them from two world wars!!! people who say things like that seem to forget that they gave us a big ol' hand during a certain war too... the war that CREATED this great nation of ours. Few Americans or anyone else in the world could probably even name the prime minister of that geopolitical powerhouse and economic marvel located somewhere north of us, and there is a reason for that. you're right about the Americans not being able to... but that's not cause of Canada's relative geopolitical insignificance; it's cause American schools don't give a shit about teaching geography. I don't agree, however, on the "rest of the world" part; ask 11-year-old schoolkids in Finland or India who the PM of Canada is, and I'd guess that at LEAST 80% of them would be able to tell ya. Canada has been riding America's coat-tails for decades and should be grateful that the likes of Ronald Reagan have allowed them to "flourish" relatively unmolested. so I guess you're saying Reagan created NATO?

badvoodoo Posted June 11, 2004 Posted June 11, 2004 I'm astounded they put that in the headlines with no disclaimer. I kept looking over the website expecting it to be like The Onion. I finally had to look up the author to make sure it was satire. Quote
marylou Posted June 11, 2004 Posted June 11, 2004 I am sickened and angered by the insolence of our brethren to the north. I guess we should add the country formerly known as Canada to our "axis of evil" list. Quote
