"Why don't you Canadians butt out of our elections? Look what you've done to your own."


Firstly, my daughter was born in Maryland and has dual citizenship. So I think my interest in what happens to my neighbours is natural and very personal. Secondly, you are our biggest trading partner so the people running your country affects our economy and everything we do--and vice-versa. You knew that...right?

Thirdly, you have expressed an opinion that reaches past your own back fence. I appreciate that!

And as an aside, I spend a fair amount of time and money in your wonderful country. And adventuresome Americans have dropped a fair share of Franklins over here!

Educated Canadians care about what happens to our neighbours. Indeed we care what happens everywhere in the world. And so do educated Americans. Just listen to your news. Or take a walk around the threads on Silicon Investor!

And have a great Monday and get some work done! Check the sump pump.
