O Canada

Submitted by rick (United States), Sep 14, 2006 at 17:40

I've been traveelling up to Canada for years. I always met nice people.

I was in Montreal during the first Canadian-Soviet Union hockey match. No traffic for two hours. I remember after losing the second game there were calls for the resignation of Prime Minister Trudeau.

That is the Canada I sort of like.

( although I must admit I like Soviet style hockey- bigger rink and less hitting , more passing. )

I hope that the Canadian cry of "Shoot that Puck" will not turn into "Death To America and Death To Israel".
