Best written non-US editorial I've read.

Very nice article by Mr. Sinclair, well appreciated. When you go through the list, it sure makes us look like a bunch of suckers.
Time to call in a few notes.

Not exactly current, but interesting. Gordon Sinclair has been dead for quite some time now, and I believe that this article was from sometime during the '70's.

With the passage of some 20 years or so, I wonder if he would write a similar article today??? A lot of events have happened to both the USA and Canada during that interval.

I just hope we are still worthy of such praise today.

Would this be the same Canadian who'd released a previous recitation to the effect "If you don't let them draft you to invade Vietnam, then I have no son?"

I believe it's BASIC morality for those that have plenty to share it with those who need help.
But maybe I'm just some mushy liberal.
yeah... that's it...
And the USA has done its share of meddling and causing untold destruction in plenty of places as well. So maybe we need to help to "clean up our karma"...
As for the Russians... they have nuclear weapons and they need money... imagine that.
