PS - The softwood labor dispute is over 20 yrs old, so it really isn't a GWB
thing. It appears that NAFTA will side with Canada.

Don,
GWB doesn't listen to me, but I actually had to Google up what the
softwood dispute was. I think the dispute is over a 27% tariff imposed
due to claims of dumping. Where did the $5 billion dollar "swindle" come
from? Do you mean $5 billion in lost income?

To be honest, neither the nice guy or bad guy actually makes any
difference in Usenet. Very few people care what anyone says to them or
about them.

So while you might be "playing the bad guy", my guess is you are
probably a good guy.

The pendulum swings both ways, so you can expect the extreme right wing
will swing back towards the center. I don't think we will be as
socialistic as Canada, but the anti-Canada rhetoric you hear in
rec.boats is not reflective of the vast majority of American citizens or
the US government. I think most Americans' view Canada as family, and
you are allowed to disagree with family.


Sounds good. Now tell George W. to give back the $5 billion he swindled
from us over the softwood lumber dispute.
