SCREW CANADA!

OTTAWA (CP) - Canada's rejection of missile defence is a historic shift in its relationship with the United States and could have deep unforeseen consequences, analysts warn.

Canada has turned its back on a 67-year-old agreement signed by then-prime minister Mackenzie King and president Franklin Roosevelt to jointly defend North America.

But Canada's refusal to sign on to the missile plan could further marginalize its concerns and interests when trade-related issues like softwood lumber appear before U.S. Congress, said one Calgary observer.

"This is one more issue that goes into the balance scale, one more reason to say, 'Screw Canada,' " said David Bercuson, director of the Centre for Military and Strategic Studies at the University of Calgary.

I agree, screw canada. They've had it coming for years!

I guess we don't need them at Cheyenne mtn anymore....They are no longer a valid member of NORAD, They should boot the canadians off the base immediately!

Thousands of U.S. and Canadian military members have worked side-by-side in both countries for more than 40 years to protect North America against an aerospace attack. Aerospace warning and control are the cornerstones of the NORAD mission.

Canada, " No stargate for you!"<g> Get out!
Actually, the Mexicans say it best; " We don't need no stinkin Canada!"

I think we need a new robot arm on the shuttle!~ng
