Although that article contains some poorly written bias about Canada, our economic situation, being "socialistic" etc, the point is quite clear that Chretien is making it very difficult for Canadians that
A) do business in or with the USA, and
B) plan to travel in the USA now or anytime soon.
This is not a blanket statement to cover all Americans, because many are great understanding people. But there are also a lot who think simplistically and see all Canadians in one light, thinking that Jean Chretien speaks for everyone. Recently I have heard stories from friends and relatives about Canadians being refused service in US stores, restaurants, and even hotels and motels.
It is likely now only going to get worse.
Sticking to your "guns" is one thing, but when you feel so strongly about sending these "little points and messages" so much so that you cause a rift between the two countries in the world that are both free and best of friends, you are either suffering the onset of Alzeihmer's or you have your head up your ass.
