Major fault lies with the Chrétien and Martin governments who have done nothing whatsoever to defend us from Washington corruption, so yes there is fault here, that's the point ...

Maybe there should be stricter laws on political party finances and foreign contributions? How much money from the pine lobby and the mafia controlled US meat packing industry is donated to the Liberal Party of Canada (directly and indirectly through Canadian confederates)? Why should a bought and paid for Liberal Government elected by votes in eastern Canada solve and facilitate the lumber, cattle and oil and gas export/transport infrastructure problems of western Canada? Its seems to me that good government in Ottawa is bought and paid for just like good government in Washington.

Perhaps an analogy will help? In the middle east, when people lose their cool and try to defend their olive orchards, homes and lands from Israeli bulldozers with deadly force, they become terrorists and killing them is an act of self defense. In north america, the US is only protecting American industry and consumers from dumping of Canadian lumber and diseased cattle. In Canada, we naively call it protectionism. What barriers does Canada have against US pine lobby members from buying up Canadian timber companies and their timber licences for 5 cents on the dollar after they are bankrupted by the US tarrif barriers? It seems to me that Canada is under attack from the US in a form of economic warfare and our own Federal Liberal Government has been bought off by American interests.
