[QUOTE="klein, post: 890383, member: 23950"] Oh well, atleast it's not worse then blaming Canada for the terrorists comming from there. Most Aamericans still believe that myth, too ! And it was quite the opposite ! Canada helped the US big time. Let all the inbound planes land here - gave all of those passengers room and board for free. And many of those US citizens returning every year because they made friends with those super friendly Canadian people who took those strangers in as if they were close relatives. It's a shame the Tea-party and some republicans had to spread those bad lies ! Lies, that some people still believe are the truth, sadly enough. Just 1 example, but I believe Ann Coulter and Fox news also reported it, and a few other dummies. December 20, 2005 [COLOR=#0000ff]WASHINGTON - Canadian Ambassador Frank McKenna demanded an apology and retraction from a United States senator who claimed yesterday that the terrorists who struck the U.S. on Sept. 11, 2001, entered the country from Canada.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]Montana Senator Conrad Burns, a Republican, made the charge during a news conference at which he said the "porous" stretch of border between Montana and Alberta is a prime route for drug runners and criminals travelling south from Calgary.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]"We have people who farm both sides of the border.
