Mica User Info... | A friend of mine from Nelson has a friend who works in City Hall. There are a lot of draft dodgers who moved to the Nelson area back in the Sixties and Seventies and apparently a group of them are planning to put up a monument to commemorate themselves. This monumnent is going to be put on private land so the township has no jurisdiction over it - not that the City would be likely to do anything about it anyway. So, word of this somehow got out and a email was sent to City Hall from a fine American and my friend got a copy from his friend in City Hall. He sent it to me and I thought I'd share it with all of you because it really is good for a laugh. Here it is: From: "Susan Hartman" To: Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 4:46 PM Subject: Comment on Your City from an American I heard in an e-mail from the American VFW that you worthless Canadian bastards are putting up a monument in Nelson to the vermin who fled the draft. I am joining in the boycott of Canadian products and writing President Bush to put tarrifs on your lumber when he gets re-elected, which he will. My blood is boiling. If you Canadian piss-ant bastards want to be hated you have accomplished that end. Please don't visit the United States and we hope you all GO TO HELL! There is no lower life-form on the planet lower than a Canadian, except perhaps a Frenchman. Cheese-eating-surrender-monkeys. There was never a King born that wasn't the son of a whore nor a queen born who wasn't one. Your government isn't legitimate! - Mon, 20 Sep 2004 12:01pm | ||

misfit User Info... | the best part is how that american is condeming their ex americans...but normailzing them as one of us, which they aren't. - Mon, 20 Sep 2004 7:44pm | ||
mp User Info... | Not all Americans think like that ignorant right-wing bitch. There's a growing number of Yanks who want some big changes to happen....for the better(ie:get Bush the fuck out of office). 3 cheers to those men who were brave enough to leave their homeland(USA) because they believed in peace and not a meaningless war. If Bush wins again, be prepared to see many more of them cross our border as the draft will most probably be re-enacted due to the mess in Iraq. - Mon, 20 Sep 2004 7:55pm | ||
The One After Two User Info... | really, all this woman needs is a hug and to be told she is special by her father. - Mon, 20 Sep 2004 8:58pm | ||

muddy fawker User Info... | Fucking americans. Clueless brainwashed motherfuckers. Go elect your retard pissant president, PAY YOUR FUCKING HYDRO BILL (you deadbeat bastards), and stay forever on your side of the border. Next time you are short of power, too fucking bad. Why go die in a pointless war? Oh, yeah, what exactly was the monument for? Did they die in the heat of a redneck bar fight? - Wed, 22 Sep 2004 5:09am | ||

Demen Ted User Info... | the best part is how that american is condeming their ex americans...but normailzing them as one of us, which they aren't. - Mon, 20 Sep 7:44pm although I can see where you are coming from, anyone who has the balls to stand up to such a government and move to Canada to get out of a crappy situation they couldnt really get out of deserves to be just as Canadian as me, IMO. BTW, the whole idea of the draft-doger monument is great! Ahahaha, boycott Canadian products? More syrup/carboard boxes for us! And I wouldnt really want us to be in Bush's good books... could get us into quite a pickle. Dan Conner - Wed, 22 Sep 2004 10:11pm | ||
