    Delete the word CANADIAN

    It's come to my attention that someone has got their knickers in a knot about me mentioning Canadians here.
    Whoever that is needs to re read the post.
    I began I've said before, I have enormous respect for Canadians, but one unknown individual has me annoyed. As someone pointed out, they may be Chinese or Japanese, Australian or even American...it's irrelevant!

    then....quote:
    I'm just having a moan to friends, of course I don't blame Canadians, this kind of stuff goes on in every country.

    Good grief, as if I need to spell this out!!
    It was a story about my son who is in CA*AD*, the replies here have been thoughtful, generous, compassionate and helpful.
    So where is the problem??????

    OK I accept the last post of mine about an Australian detained by America for 5 years without charge or trial was hard for some to accept, I said delete it if the moderators choose to, and they chose to.

    but a story about my son accused of theft is controversial because it happened in canada??

    OK if it is, then Mike, delete the sodding lot and I'll just post about the new kilt I bought and how someone thought I looked silly in it but then someone else thought I looked cool........

    good grief!

    Maybe they need more fiber in their diet.

    Don't sweat it Graham, you've been around long enough to know that some people can find something to whine about in any post in the database. Just chalk it up to someones having a bad day and needed to take it out on someone else.

    Thanks Glen, just heard from Daniel, Canadians are waking up (I'm not saying here that Canadians are sleepy, dull, lazy or stupid, I refer to the time difference...just to be clear).

    Daniel, is staying in Banff, he likes it there, thanks anyway Steve.
    He is staying with friends from church and will find other work. I think wanting to come home was a reaction, a natural one.

    I've emailed the ski resort to explain that they are very wrong about him.

    a reminder too that he has posted photos on my online album if anyone wants to see them (link below).
    I'm hoping to get to Canada next year, mostly likely Ontario and Nova Scotia.
