Well, as a proud Canadian citizen, I can’t just take remarks about my home and native land lying down. I thank God that there are very few Americans as ignorant as the previous responder to this thread. First of all, I believe that the issue in question was the transportation of SARS from Toronto, I don’t believe that the Dutch elm disease, or bugs in your bark is at all relevent. In the same breath, the previous respondant mentioned that he would have no trouble bringing wood into the states, and then stated that it is Canada where all the terrorists come from, and the terrorist problem is Canada’s fault. Like the other responder, I would agree that U.S. patrolls its own borders, and thus the blame should not be put on Canada or the U.S. Canada cannot be called a terrorist haven because of its multiculturality, and though the terrorists of September 11 were in general of a certain race, terrorists come in all shapes and sizes... and most importantly colors. For example, timothy mcVeigh was an American citizen, and no less a terrorist. There is no need for this cross border squabbling, nor for personal remarks against Canada or the U.S. I would vouch for Toronto as a safe place, as less than 1 percent of people have SARS, and you have just as much chance of catching SARS in Toronto as catching Aids in Chicago, or the Bubonic Plague in Boston. Can we please stop this ignorance, and be drawn together by what we all have in common. Railroading.
