Thanks for your kind comments regarding your next door neighbor but
Canada isn't completely fault-free as far as Vietnam goes.Â* Your
country didn't do any of the dirty work involving fighting and dying
but your industry manufactured and supplied the US military with some
of the tools and weapons used, including napalm and Agent Orange.

Â*Â*From Wiki:

"500 firms (Canadian) sold $2.5 billion of war materials (ammunition,
napalm, aircraft engines and explosives) to the Pentagon. Another $10
billion in food, beverages, berets and boots for the troops was
exported to the U.S., as well as nickel, copper, lead, oil, brass for
shell casings, wiring, plate armour and military transport. In Canada
unemployment fell to record low levels of 3.9%"

So, making a buck off of someone else's dirty work is ok with you?

Wow...you've really, truly slid into the deep end.

What did I say that was not true or that offended you?

He is upset that you pointed out the military industrial complex
included anyone but greedy Americans. I am sure Harry had already
picked out a place in Ontario where he would run if the draft board
had tracked him down.

Crikey, your level of ignorance is astonishing. My draft board knew
every address I had. I followed the letter of the law. I informed my
draft board of my whereabouts by certified or registered mail. I've
posted this several times. Try to stay in contact with reality.

I did have a "military" encounter with the FBI when I was working in
Detroit...so, obviously, the feds knew where I was. A close high school
buddy of mine went AWOL and was living and working in Ontario, across
the Detroit River. The FBI knew that, and wanted my assistance in
"tricking" him to come to Detroit for lunch so he could be arrested. The
next time we had lunch, I told him what the FBI wanted me to do, and we
had a laugh about it. Oh, that lunch was at a restaurant in Windsor. He
knew better than to come over the bridge into Detroit. After the general
pardon, he became a Canadian citizen. We caught up in person last summer
in New Haven.

So, at the time, obstruction of justice.
