Letters \| National Post \| July 1, 1999 As both Canadian and American independence days come and go, and as the debate concerning a common currency and other aspects of Canada/U.S. integration heats up, let us remember that there are profound differences between the two countries. In the interest of completeness, and as a public service, here are the top seven: 7. In the U.S., they have the right to bear arms . . . in Canada, we have the right to bare breasts; 6. In the U.S., they have millions of Mexicans wanting to get in . . . in Canada, we have millions of Quebecers wanting to get out; 5. In the U.S., 15% of Americans believe Elvis is still alive . . . in Canada, 15% of Canadians believe Jean Chretien is still alive; 4. Popular U.S. bumper stickers read "LIVE FREE OR DIE!" . . . in Canada, bumper stickers read "TAX ME -- BEFORE I SPEND AGAIN!"; 3. In the U.S., popular leisure activities include Wet T-Shirt Contests and Dwarf Tossing . . . in Canada, it's gender sensitivity seminars and cycling for the CBC and for other left-wing causes; 2. In the U.S., they have tough prisons for the most predatory and useless members of society . . . in Canada, we have the Senate; . . . and the number one difference between Canada and the U.S.: In Canada, Jean Chretien proves that anybody can grow up to be prime minister . . . In the U.S., Bill Clinton proves that anybody can be president without having to grow up. Gerald C. Cameron, Toronto. Dan Sorkin Stumps 'R Us www.stumps.org Chief Stump
