Did I say "our" mess? I meant another Republican mess.

Canada and its citizens never fail to amaze me. I understand that there have been some issues with First Nations...but Canada and Canadians step up.

But to say there have been some issues with First Nations would sadly be an understatement.

It's a very difficult issue but at least Canada appears to be stepping up and owning it.

I'm English...

If not for Canada and other Commonwealth countries Hitler and his allies would have prevailed....

And world war 1 would have ended differently...

I'm so grateful to you guys...basic decency personified.
