>>should be on front pages in the US like it is here<<

It's more of a regional issue here. It gets mentioned on the business pages now and then.

>>maybe later we'll get into the question of reparations for all our salmon you people have been ripping off as they come through your saltchuck en route from the Bering Sea<<

Oh no, not the fish wars! This is awfully complicated. Canadian fishermen also intercept stocks headed for Washington and Oregon, and since those runs have been devastated by dams, the Canadians don't get as many fish as they used to. A new agreement was negotiated in 1999 to address this.

As for reparations, it seems to me that the high prices we pay for your oil and gas should suffice. Despite all our economic hegemony, it seems that we have a huge trade deficit with Canada. What do you do with all the money, eh? <g>
