The National Rifle Association, a powerful lobbying group in the United States that advocates fewer gun controls, has been actively involved in trying to abolish Canada's long-gun registry for more than a decade, CBC News has learned.

Get back on your side of the border and mind your business.
Concur with the idea that the NRA can go fuck itself.
Now... to wait for the apologists and excuse makers to come in and explain why this is okay...
Because Canada is a branch plant economy. And because of the messianic zeal of Americans - look at all the ones on this forum.
The CIA tried to topple Lester Pearson by trying to get dirt on him because they didn't like his policies like selling grain to the Russians and not going to Vietnam. They interrogated his friend for so long he died of a heart attack. So the NRA is just doing what comes naturally.
We've been taking it in the ass from the Americans for so long, I think we've come to like it. At least they tell us they still respect us in the morning. Look at all the trade disputes where we just roll over. We're like a hooker who's proud because at least she's getting paid more than the crack whores. Still getting fucked tho.

That's pretty much it in a nutshell.
I've had about enough though. It's time to turn this whorehouse into a convent.

Sorry. You folks let that genie out of the bottle when your ambassador and government endorsed Al Gore in the 2000 election and when your Liberals joined with British Labour to openly and directly attempt to influence the 2004 US elections.
If your government will act to influence our elections, we will act to return the favor.
Buy American, The Sequel? New Canada-U.S. trade battle looms ahead
WASHINGTON - Seven months after the Buy American resolution, Canadian manufacturers are poised to become ensnared in yet another protectionist piece of U.S. legislation even though the Chinese are the intended target.
So the point of NAFTA is what, exactly? But of course we'll go begging cap in hand for any crumbs, never think about retaliating.

I think you have the timing reversed. I mentioned Lester Pearson, and an attempt to depose a sitting prime minister. He came way before Al Gore, and trying to depose a PM is a litle different than endorsing a candidate.

Why don't the see the double standard? Many Americans (quite rightly IMHO) were angered by British citizens who lobbied them not to vote for Bush back in 2004, yet they have no problems sticking their noses into our business here.

Then the matter is an old tradition that we screw with each other's politics.
After the multinationalists get their way and establish the North American Union it'll all be moot anyway.
Limiting this to the NRA, the reasoning for the NRA being involved in Canadian gun policies is legitimized due to the repeated and ongoing calls for gun controls in the USA by Canadian politicians who would rather ask Americans to ban guns than to ask Canadian Mohawks to stop smuggling them.

How 'bout we quit that.

Thank you for saying what I was thinking.
Because we allow it.
