Canada makes a good neighbor. There aren't too many neighboring countries around the world that get along as well as Canada and the US. Good friends are always hard to find, especially among nations.
We have too much in common to allow our differences to divide us. At some point in time, we will have to let the past be the past. Good friends don't always agree, but they do always try to get along.
We have strong ties with each other, culturally, economically, and militarily. We share the longest undefended border in the world, and though the terrorist threat may force changes, I think both our nations should be proud of that accomplishment.
I have never been to Canada myself, but living in a part of the US that is a popular winter destination for Canadians, I've met quite a few in my day. I think very highly of Canadians because of the ones I have met. Maybe one day I'll get a chance to come up there for a visit. |
