What Generous Folks We Canadian's are

Isn't it nice that Martin has showed our generosity at the UN meetings today. He has kindly now donated to the Palestinian Authority another $25.5 million of our money over and above the $12.5 million in May he donated. This now brings the total to over $310 million in contributions we have made to the Palestine effort. Although he claims it is to "improve the lives of the Palestinian people.
"
Why do I have my doubts that that is what it actually is used for? Why does weapons for the cause come to mind? Why do I think there will be even more fighting in the area now than ever before? I'm such a pessimist!

Take a bow Canadian's you are very giving people.

Now how bout all the homeless and those living under the poverty level in Canada. What has Martin done for them recently? I'm sure they could use some $310 million to help their cause.

But the homeless in Canada aren't in the media, so they won't get any money...

They are actually. But being seen by the world as a good "worldly citizen" is far better. The people of the world could care less about our homeless and poor....."it's their own fault" I would like to know who donated cash to Canada when it was in it's infantcy to help it get to where it is. The funny thing is we are by far still an infant as far as countries go. Yet we have develope far beyond much "older countries".

Good topic for a post...I'm going to go check this out.......ty Dino......

Great idea. I'm pretty sure we were funded by France and England to start, must have been. Maybe even a little from spain as they had their hands in everything at the time as well. I would point the lack of funds of these older countries in one direction, no democracy. All of the countries we are donating to are either communist or socialist....
