So when IanBruce implies Canadians are eskimo sled driving dogs its ok, because he only meant to

You got it. When did "Canadian's" become this oppressed minority group anyway? I think you should chill out with a Molson and some back bacon and relax, eh? :-)

There you go again...

I've never used the word "eskimo" in any of my posts - or made any reference to the word. BTW: they're called Inuit -- the word "eskimo" is inaccurate and very offensive to members of this group -- basically because it was thought to mean (erroneously) "eater of raw meat".

And just so we're clear -- last I checked, being Canadian does not qualify you for any special treatment under Affirmative Action. "Canadians" of French extraction do not qualify as any kind of "race" or minority group (except the one that I myself belong to). To the best of my knowledge "The Canadian Race" is the Annual Power Toboggan Championships.

By the same token, if I called you a fur-trappin', shack livin', huskie mushin', salmon chompin', igloo buildin', Molson swillin', 3 channel watchin' phony -- it's directed at you and none else.
