Everyone i know recognizes our government is a bit of a mess and lacks true leadership. We have a border so porous we are now having americans murdered on our soil by drug cartels. Our medical insurance combined with obama care is a joke. We get it, there are big problems. But next time there's a disaster anywhere in the world, who is going to be the first to respond with volunteers, medical staff and money? I don't think the us is as bad as some canadians make it out to be, which is surprising because i suspect you know us best.

amen!
