That changed this month after the U.S. Government Accountability Office released a report warning that the terrorist threat from Canada was higher than from Mexico because of the vast swaths of unprotected frontier. Just 32 miles of the 4,000-mile border have an acceptable level of Border Patrol security, with agents available to make on-site arrests, the report said.
"There are more drugs on Wall Street than here," said Jonathan Maracle, 35, who owns a gift shop on the 12,000-member Akwesasne Mohawk reservation, straddling New York and Canada on both sides of the St. Lawrence River. "All they're trying to do is make us look bad up here because they can't control up here. The United States government is nothing but bullies."

I feel it important to get this message across......
Canadians as a rule dont like American policy or attitudes.
We tend to be less braggarts, and more doers.
We tend to stick to our last, and let others do same.
As far as the Candians i know go...we simply do not wany americans here.(truthfully we find them arrogant, and overbearing.)
nor do we want to be associated with same goverment policy as you guys.
We have no wish to control the world, and we dont like the NAFTA example of doing business with those who reneg on their word as a people or as a country.The US hasd a past history of dirty fealings with foriegn leaders at the expense of their peoples.
It is true for your deals with Canada as well.We certainly dont need US law enfocement in this country.
Many look forward to the fall of the US hedgemony, and an end to corporate control of your goverment.
We are concerned for the ameican people, but not your way of government.
We dont want our troops killing for your corporate aristocracy.
Wed rather sell our resources on a free world market than send them south to support the arrogant policies of Amerika.
i do hope this is a little more decorous.

I tend to agree with what this guy says below...

My Canadian friends,
Please realize that the corrupt US government (USDA giving the nod to even more Monsanto evil) speaks for less than 20% of the populace.
