Canadian press, TV and radio commentators point it out, his omission of Canada as a friend of the U.S. in the speech last night, but don't make a big deal about it. Nonetheless, everyone noticed.

Don't be absurd dood. Not only is Canada your largest trading partner, it is your biggest ally. The only country Canadians would offer to lay their lives down for other than their own is the United States.

I believe the ommission was an innocent mistake.

I do find it interesting that Canada is rarely ever mentioned in war documentaries.

We fought on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, yet when you watch war documentaries they seem to mention all other counties but Canada.

My uncles fought in WW2 and Korea, 2 were wounded in battle.

Canadians are behind the USA 110%.
