Who would have thought? Americans would have to donate 1.5 billion to
equal Canadian generosity.

I have to apologize to everyone. My inferiority complex is showing
again. I realize that the local TV news was wrong, and I see that
Americans have donated way more than Canadians. I guess it really is
true that Canadians suffer from a severe case of 'merican inferiority'
when even the local TV compares our achievements to 'mericans.

We are a really sad country.

We have far less disposable income than Americans. Less room to give.

And we have dropped off food already, which is more important than money
if your starving.

Give it 6 months and the gangs will rule again, the drug trade will
revive and business as usual. Because if we really cared about Haiti
they woul dhave had martial law and birth control 2 decades ago.
