[And don't kid yourself about Canada. The majority are moderately xenophobic and have rules in many industries that discourage or prohibit foreign ownership.
Not wanting American ownership of Canadian assets hardly qualifies as xenophobia. Whenever you give Americans anything they just take take take.

Ask any other country they've done business with.
China? Japan? The EU? I'm not sure any would back up your claim, because it isn't true.

It's more like foreign countries want the U.S. to give give give and we do.

Kinda like you get our water and hydro at a discount?

And when the blackout happened your news media had the nerve to blame the problem on Canada when it actually originated in Ohio.

What I'm saying (to TK) is this:

The notion that politically mouthy Canadians don't want foreign investment is bullshit at best and slanderous at worst. What they don't want is hollowing out of nationally vital industries, especially not having yet more Canadian dollars flow into the US.

It sounds like your issue is with your own government and not the United States.

I didn't say that.

My issue is with the constant insults of America by foreigners who think they are better than the U.S. (talk about arrogance) but have the audacity to say that Americans think we're better than anyone.

P.S. in FL we don't buy your water or hydro

No you didn't but TK did... that's where the original rant came from.

It's true, Florida doesn't buy Canadian water, US water bottlers do, and the Estern seabord gets our hydro or what not...

Unfortunately you guys do get our worst export: Snowbirds!

My apologies.

Might want to check your nearest Sweetbay, when I was down there last fall there was quite a few compaines that imported water from Ontario, even though you've got one of the freshest spring fed aquifer systems(Zephyrhills for example) in the world there.
