To be honest, unlike with say Australia, I really never think of Canada as being part of the Commonwealth. I always kinda assumed that Canada is just a satellite nation to the USA. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32999748.post-78177827679664802882008-12-10T08:46:00.000-05:002008-12-10T08:46:00.000-05:00You're right, JJ!They certainly call each other na...You're right, JJ!<BR/><BR/>They certainly call each other names and make threats, but they tend to stop just short of outright stupidity, maybe because they sense the populace wouldn't believe it.Adam Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634565262440008573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32999748.post-41297395605184785752008-12-08T11:19:00.000-05:002008-12-08T11:19:00.000-05:00Hmm, No offence to you Canadians, but it certainly...Hmm, No offence to you Canadians, but it certainly looks like your politicians have a lot to learn from our politicians about the art of making an entertaining spectacle of themselves.

The poster knows way more about our political system than I do.<BR/><BR/>I personally have grown wary of forums...I start obsessively checking them, and then I start arguing, and then I get unhappy.<BR/><BR/>I find that the more I avoid that sort of situation the happier I ultimately am. :)Adam Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634565262440008573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32999748.post-45029021693026806582008-12-07T07:32:00.000-05:002008-12-07T07:32:00.000-05:00Like most of my fellow Americans, I was totally ig...Like most of my fellow Americans, I was totally ignorant and needing a hand-holding walk through. I'd like your take on this one from PoE News, if I may.. just because you're one of the few Canadians I can talk to who isn't on Poe News.<BR/><BR/>http://www.poe-news.com/forums/sp.php?pi=1001888230<BR/><BR/>Once upon a time you posted to PoE a bit.. it is pretty dead, but PoE News is quite alive, and this seems like a pretty good explanation. It helped clear things up for me (see my dumb comments later in the thread).<BR/><BR/>Also, you should come and chat sometimes on PoE News.. you're incredibly cool, and it can be fun if you ignore the inevitable in-jokes.<BR/><BR/>I first found your site when I saw what a nice person you were on PoE.. I remember a defining quote: "That's just the kind of Muffy I am!" :)Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14264351834016185691noreply@blogger.com
