Every potential leader should let us know where they stand on the issue; agreed. It is not deadly important; much of this war problem may be decided before an election is called. It is only important to know what their priorities are and whether We would vote for them. I realize many Canadians and Canadian businesses would prefer our government side with the USA because we will suffer economically for making a strong independent stand. If we are to grow as a country; we must be willing to make our own decisions. Mr Bush is a very controlling and vindictive leader; but I have faith in the American people and that they will
elect a more fair minded president in the near future. The American people have always had a strong stand on promoting free speech.

You are right that things are probably already decided. You are also right that the business community wants us to side with the US for economic reasons - which are legitimate.

You are right that we have to make our own decisions.

I have faith in the American people too.
