Re: This rock, this watery pearl, this pale blue dot.

And I suppose the chance of Canada getting it together and building a
fort, is about nil.

Even though we have the precambrian sheild, and we have all the raw
materials to build a fortress of legend, we don't have the will power
to accomplish anything at all.

Where America has vasy underground bases and Switzerland is build deep
into the mountains, we have a few stone buildings that we call our
houses of parliament.

Our entire civilization here in Canada would blow away without leaving
a trace, in a stiff breeze.

We don't like life period.

We are slaves who toil and earn just enough to pay the high cost of
living and that is all. You can count the rich Candians on one hand
probably.

If ever there was a race of TV watching people's that would be
Canadians.

Unable to actually live life, they are destined to observe it, and eat
potato chips.

Never has there been a more spinless government either, nor a more
incompetent bunch, who do nothing, while making loud noises.

To think that these people, who are terrified of everything including
the opinions of every old person who lives on a farm in
Saskatchewan, would ever do anything of note, or accomplish anything
besides setting themselves up for retirement, is a pipedream in the
extreme.

The key to our survival as a people, is that we are so unnoticeable no
one notices us at all. Except when we venture off to other lands to
help people fight their wars, or to fix their fences or what have you.

The Latvians, would build a fortress before Canadians would build a
fortress.

We just don't care enough to do a thing.

If its talk you need, we can do plenty of that.
Get the people together and build some great thing that might last for
thousands of years?

Not us.
We are the pigs that built of straw.

We made the Canada Arm for the Space Shuttle.
That was the best that we could do.
So basically if no one comes to save us, we are toast.
And really if you look at the facts, there is no one out there within
range to save us from ourselves.

You see this rock right here, the precambrian shield, is about 4.5
billion years old in places.

That means it survived just about everything so far.

And so that is where you would want to think about building a fortress.

And you would want to build it, to withstand almost anything.

And then you would have done something.

As it is, we are just like cattle without a cowboy.

We are like deer who just stand there, when they are in the headlights.

No one would miss us anyways if a hypercane blew us into the sea.
