A tolerant mosaic society...but like most countries...our past misdeeds to our Japanese Canadians and to our First Nations people should keep us from being arrogant or hateful...
I enjoy true crime novels such as Ann Rule...but I just love the writings of John Irwin...read all his novels...dealing with the human condition and such insecurities and strife we all can relate to...
Johnny Cash never approved of the Vietnam War...but he sang for the troops regardless...many lost their lives for what?...you should be able to disagree with your governments' involvement in war without disrespecting those who served...Springsteen I feel is similar to Cash in this way...
Too bad Trump had to endorse the Republican stance of not believing in the global warning theory...as he is not Republican in the first place...the environment will suffer for it...really not happy with his choices including his pick for education...sad days for Americans...including some Americans who are brown or Muslim...most whites cannot differentiate between the two...as violence against them is happening...sad indeed...
Some people are deluding themselves...lol... ...lets not make out that these internment camps were actually ethical...or like a holiday excursion...people suffered...homes were sold and businesses were lost...stripped of their citizenship...funny how the top military advisors along with the RCMP opposed this relocation program as they saw no threat to security at all...what a shame...the reparations is a drop in the bucket to what each Japanese Canadians lost...stolen from them...just like the Jews in Germany...
The flip side is that many here find it way too expensive to live once retired...South America is yet another expat destination...and close to the US...
A future snowbird...just waiting to retire...
Will have to enroll in Spanish speaking classes...
Glad you can see the sunshine beaming through the dark and murky clouds...lol...
Optimism is a good quality...
I am sure Mexico has many trade deals with other countries...and let's face it...American and Canadian senior citizens do like to live in Mexico for economic reasons as well as for the warm weather and nice beaches...my parents liked to go and spend time there...Canadian snowbirds...
RE: Here's a propagabda that peaceful Muslims can listen to
Don't engage in sending her messages...and don't take it personally...she has a tendency to get stirred up...threats regarding banning...
