Thanks to the anti-American and anti-Bush state-run CBC; the various liberal-left politicians who rely on propaganda-dissemination though the state-run CBC; the liberal-media which are absolutely replete with statements and messages from the liberal-left and liberal-left politicians; academics who teach their liberal-left, anti-Bush message; a left-wing rabidly anti-Bush entertainment industry; and push polls being conducted regularly in Canada by liberal-left pollsters who are commissioned by liberal-left organizations which are pathalogical about constantly coming up with new and better examples of how Canadians hate America and George Bush; we are once again reminded that to be cool, you should hate Bush.
Well actually, hate anything conservative—anything not toeing the liberal-left line. Like the Conservative Party, Republicans, Alberta, Christians, anything making a profit, parts of BC, pro-life folks, normal married couples with families, and actual free markets.
But like the liberals who constantly preface everything they say about the Iraq war (“we respect the soldiers, of course,” they chortle—“it’s just the war we are against”), in this latest poll, Canadians were pushed to declare their anti-Bush message this time in the poll while declaring their love and respect for the Americans themselves: “we love the Americans—it’s Bush we can’t stand!” is what I believe we are to take from this. I’m honestly not sure because I’m simply not that stupid, and I can’t get down to that dumb.
At the same time, in this poll of brilliance, Canadians (mostly not from Alberta, I suspect) were given the option to make Alberta pay the price for their abject and petty hatred. It’s like a liberal-left dream poll!
77% want energy cut back unless U.S. capitulates
poll: Majority believe U.S. should repay $5B for softwoodOTTAWA – Three of every four Canadians believe Canada should restrict oil and gas exports to the United States if the U.S. does not repay the $5-billion in softwood lumber tariffs that were ruled a violation of the North American Free Trade Agreement, a new poll suggests.
On the eve of a key visit to Canada by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the poll also found nearly two-thirds of Canadians see her visit as a “big public relations exercise” and think President George W. Bush and Ms. Rice do not really care about resolving trade disputes between the two countries.
The Ipsos Reid survey conducted last week for CanWest News Service discovered that a solid majority of Canadians—78%—agreed Canada should look for alternative markets for energy and lumber exports, even though it could further damage trade relations with the U.S.
An overwhelming majority of the 1,001 adults surveyed—81%—disagreed with a statement that the United States is Canada’s best friend, a secure market for Canadian goods, and that Canada should let the United States keep the billions of dollars in softwood tariffs and move on to other issues.
But the poll also found a broad, underlying feeling of friendship toward the United States and Americans in general.
Seventy-one per cent of respondents agreed with the statement: “I value and respect the United States and its citizens—it’s just that I disagree fundamentally with their government.”
But you KNOW the media isn’t trying to be political. I mean just because they did this poll on the very day before that evil U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is visiting Canada—that’s merely a coincidence.

I wouldn’t care to deal with people who hate me and show it at every opportunity either.
But here’s an idea: rather than restrict oil and gas exports to the U.S. (which coincidentally—I’m just so sure!—come from Alberta which votes Conservative), while preserving valuable liberal-left-voting Ontarians from suffering any such setback, it would make eminently more sense to restrict the export of cars and trucks built in Ontario and Quebec to the U.S., especially since it’s American companies that own most of that industry. Sure, Ontarians and Quebecers would suffer immeasurable harm and possibly set them back 50 or more years economically leaving many of them destitute, perhaps even causing their economies to join second-world status, as all Canadians eventually would. But it sure would stick it to George Bush. What do you say?
It really must perplex liberal-left Canadians that George Bush got more votes than any president in the history of the United States and a clear majority of votes. Americans seem to have thought he was a fine man with a fine vision for America at election time. And yet they profess to love the Americans. And it’s a wonder to me that the pro-American, pro-President of the United States Conservative Party in Canada isn’t well back behind the NDP in dead last place instead of being nearly tied with the corrupt Liberals in Canada—in spite of all the anti-Bush rhetoric stemming from the Canadians media, academia, and so on.
Canadians thinking on their own without being pushed in any one direction would be so conservative it would make liberal heads spin. Even more than they’re spinning.
