Len, I do not think that a lot of the Americans on this newsgroup can
comprehend what an "Ugly American" really is. They look into the mirror
and
only see a reflection of what they want to see.


Why don't you paint a picture for us of an "Ugly American."

We, "Ugly Americans", will then respond with a poratriat of an Ugly
Canadian and an Ugly European.


You are a stupid little man.

Ugly American: Phillippines, Vietnam, Iraq. All the same.

Not to mention Ugly Muslims.

OK. But, it has nothing to do with the three debacles I pointed out to the
child.

So how much does Canada commit annually to it's military Jim?

Can you admit that your country has benefited greatly from the "Ugly
American"?

How about we depend on your guys from now on to be the worlds peace keeper?
Are you up to that task financially?

True, but let's not limit the term Ugly. I mean, what about Algeria
in the late '50s? Ugly French. The Greenpeace "Rainbow Warrior"
murder committed by the Ugly French Government.

In fact, if you really want to use the term ugly, about all 140
governments in the world can be termed "ugly" in one sense or another
with one or two exceptions - Canada being one.


Ya know, you're OK. :-)

Back to binis, aka "business": The existence of one sin doesn't make another
sin acceptable. Or, as mothers used to say, "Just because all your friends
are jumping off a bridge doesn't mean you have to, also". This country's
mission is to set an example for perfection, even though that's elusive.

There's your delusion: That *we* are supposed to be the world's
peacekeepers. Where did you get THAT idea from?

I would point out that without the collusion of their governments,
this wouldn't have happened.

And I seriously have to question Argentina as being a problem created
by Ugly Americans.

More like Ugly Germans.

you're most likely correct on this one!

There's nothing Ugly about Canada - except for Robertson Screws that
is.

Or maybe Don, but I can't say that he's ugly - never met him. :)


Opinions vary!

Canada's budget for the military for 2005 was 25.8 billion dollars.

Canadian Armed Forces consist of 9,500 Navy, 19,500 Army, 14,500 Air Force.
All are highly trained professionals. There is approx. 20,000 administration
and support personnel.

We lost four of our best soldiers, in Afghanistan, due to the arrogance of
one Ugly American, Maj. Harry Schmidt of the US Air Force.

Canada has not gained any benefit from the "Ugly American". The CIA is not
welcomed here. There has been attempts by the CIA to use forged Canadian
documents abroad and this was a detriment to Canada.

Canada is well known throughout the world as Peace Keepers. Our military
budget does support these efforts.

Jim
