Toronto Star poll. I think we have p*ssed him off too in a number of ways:1) Gay Marriage is now legal/recognized across Canada and in every Canadian province (Bush wants to make it illegal)
2) Analysists predict pot will be completely legal for personal use across Canada in the next 4-5 years. (Bush says he despises this, worth noting he was a former (and may still be) illegal substance abuser.)
3)A large number of Americans want to move to Canada just after the Bush win in the election, according to the Immigration Canada website.
4) Canada may be the most tolerant yet rational country in the world, an Amnesty International study reveals. Politically we have rejected extremists, and remained the most racially diverse country in the world. (per capita)
