Keith Gottschalk from the U.S and Matt Adams from Canada are trying to keep things in proportion. What's with the Ontario referendum to change the way Ontario does political business? It is almost certainly going to fail and Ontario will keep the status quo - how very Canadian. And it didn't used to be so Canadian but now border guards have stopped peace activist from crossing into Canada. Is the Harper government cracking down on dissent (again?). And the dark world of Blackwater is just the tip of private military firms in Iraq. Over 180 companies have a presence supporting the U.S. troops with little to no oversight or accountability. High pay, no accountability, yeah that always works out well. Trust us, you can't blow this problem out of proportion.
