   So many people come and give doomer statements on the reality of the US and Canada becoming increasingly at odds.

   As a US citizen, I just want to add that I hope some day we can reestablish a healthy relationship with our neighbors. These articles are saddening.

      As a canadian, regardless of how sad it might be, we cannot stake our livlihoods on nostalgia for a past that may never come again.

         When your population reaches 100 million, as is the plan... how much nostalgia could there even be? 70 million of those people won't remember any previous era, because they just stepped off the plane. For that matter, what sort of livelihood could there be? Are you planning on some resurgence of Canadian manufacturing? Steel maybe? Textiles? Maybe a film industry? Will you all be lawyers?

            Whatever it is, it wont be under the thumb of the US. That is all anyone cares about now. Canadians want off the sinking ship.
