Hear, hear!  I am terribly embarrased by Mr. Ryan's comments towards 
Canadians.  As an American, it pains me to think there are those still in this
country who still wants everybody to respect us just because we are us, even
we if don't warrant that respect.  If someone wants to make a comment about
something internal to the US, please do so!  He/She might give us an idea that
we could use.  To negate any statement from someone just because they aren't
tax-paying citizens of this country is ludicrous!  Think of it this way, they
are giving advice t us for FREE!   It is up to us to make use of that advice.

And since we are s superpower, the actions we take can and sometimes do have
reactions in our neighbor to the North, so I find it very reasonble that
they would take the time to comment/critisize what they think is wrong, 
particularly since it might affect them (i.e. the acid rain problem, an
American problem that severly affects Canada)

SO, Mr. Ryan, take your anti-Everybody-Who-Doesn't-Pay-Taxes attitude and
take put it where, well, you know.
