Maybe because he was taught that the sanctions are entirely America's fault and have nothing to do with his own country's non-compliance with UN resolutions. Maybe.

No, No he means that country that you tried to liberate not realizing that the people there didn't want to be liberated. You know the ones that beat you back and burned down your capital building in retaliation. Frankly, you can keep the yoopers and upper Michigan, that's a uniquely American experience. 
Kokanee is my beer of choice and it has a nice manly mountaintop on it for Japher. I think it's only available in western Canada.
Bush and Cretin would have to vie for the position of top moron. Cretin may look funny and speak pygmy english but Bush,well I'm sure we've all seen the pics that were posted here before of him doing various incredibly stupid things.

Ah, Stella, my lager of choice
Now, if we're talking about poor quality beers, we need to mention Fosters. If I pissed in a glass and mixed it with carbonated water, I would imagine that it would taste quite similar to Fosters.

I'm sorry we beat you in Olympic hockey. In our defense I guess our excuse would be that our team was much, much, much, much better than yours.

It's nice to beat the Yanks on home ice. What was the Amercan team's response? "You guys wanted it more than we did."

What is with the weakness of the beer anyway? What is the standard strength of American beer? 3.5% is the standard content of a pint of beer over here in England. Plenty of lovely 5% beers and even 9% beers are relatively easy to find.

American beer is 5% alcohol.

Asher, I've only drank Molson while in Canada, so I don't know about the exported sludge.
Its funny to say American beers are crap and bring up Budweiser, Miller, and Coors as examples. That'd be like Canadian beers suck because of Molson. There are plenty of good beers that aren't massively produced in BOTH countries!

It's a part of the great Canadian conspiracy, Asher, don't you know? Stealth cultural imperialism. *nods knowingly*
I'll second Imran's opinion on Sam Adams. Tasty stuff.

I emailed my MP and suggested that the Feds put a largish export tax on natural gas to the United States. They could accompany it with a suggestion that people in the Mid West and North East could burn wood if they didn't like it.
Some time later I heard on the news that the idea of an export tax on natural gas is a possibility the government is considering if the Americans don't stop playing like protectionists while preaching free trade.
I wonder...

You hear about the latest tarriffs they're putting on grain?
Grain tarriffs. Because we're the ones subsidising our farmers.
