| Shane was the first "adult" western, meaning that it was made for adult audiences, as opposed to the Hopalong Cassidy/Roy Rogers cowboy movies. I really liked Shane. I liked it so much that I rented it and showed it to my kids who were totally bored and walked out mid way through. Definitely not for... |

Freaker Freaker: Legalise it, regulate it, and tax it!
Absolutely. Then we should makes lots of money smuggling it into the US. That's how Sam Bromfman built the Seagram's empire; smuggling booze during Prohibition. We should do it again. |

| Those technologies cannot provide much power for a city . . . Cities waste an enormous amount of energy. Those big buildings dump more heat down their sewers than they need to heat them for much of the year. That heat could be shared, but sewers are sacrosanct. Many big buildings are actually heate... |

"Does Canada stand for anything?"
This question is always put forward by people who want us to be more American, as if in defiance of our Loyalist ancestors. The revolution of 1776 created two countries. The real answer to the question is that we are not American. |

| I agree with most of your post, BlackIvy2. Like you, I don't like the US system. But, I don't like all Americans. I like most of them, however there are a few I want nothing to do with. Top of that list is GW Bush. |

| The map link does work, but you have to do it in two stages. First go to: http://www.canadiana.org/citm/imagepopups/ Then scroll down the menu and choose ena-1774 e.html. Just a side note: when confronted by a 404, try chopping sections off the URL starting at the right. Usually, you can get into th... |

Canada could, in theory , stand up to the US and say "fuck it" it will now be like this, and equal, and fair.... but the repercussions would be far worse for Canada than the US --and both sides know it. I'm not sure what your whole post was all about. You seem to be suggesting that Canada s... |

No, we've tried that. It only works to your favour. We need to work separately to get our individual houses in order. |

| So what exactly did America do to you? Having asked, my suspicion is that you really don't want to know. The US is the biggest bully on the block. Very few Americans understand that and those who do don't want to hear it; most non-Americans understand implicitly. The way to deal with a bully is to ... |

For example: American border security now fingerprints Brazilians; in response, Brazil now fingerprints Americans. At first, Americans were shock... |
