Canada may not be as neutral and peaceful as you think. It is only a
joke that everything is made in China. Canada creates not only syrup and
hockey stars. It also creates weapons and killing machines for profits.
War is an extremely profitable business that Canada has now got itself
into.
Forgive my cynicism about Canada's foreign policy, which now
largely follows that of Uncle Sam. Let's talk policy is no more. Let's
drop a bomb has become a life-killing but money-making policy. Diplomacy
doesn't pay. Destruction does. Miserable humans !!!

Spring Shooting
In the news, 6 were killed
in suburban Houston, Texas, including 4 children. Is this even news, or
rather just the same old story? Mass shooting is nothing new in
America. It happens frequently. Even the headline of the news article I read implies that it is something seasonal.
To be fair, the headline of 'Spring Shooting' is probably intended to mean that the tragedy is happening in Spring, but to me, it sounds like an expected seasonal event. Don't be surprised if you see this same old story happen yet again: summer shooting, fall shooting and winter shooting! It is like a popular movie, with continued sequels.
Unfortunately, such mass murders are not movies. Real people actually died. In terms of gun possession, U.S.A. is number one in the whole world. One recent report shows that there are 97 guns for every 100 U.S.residents. Whao, that means there are more than 300 million guns in America !
"Guns don't kill people.Only people kill people", so they say. I heard that in Texas, a man would propose to marry a woman by giving her not only a ring, but also a gun. Dear friends in Texas, is this true or not ? Don't know what to say really, in spite of the fact that mass shooting causing multiple deaths is a very serious problem.Why ? Because bearing arms is a constitutional right of the Americans.
Guns are very much part of the American culture. It is not easy to change a culture, unless both government and people come to an agreement. Politics and economics only make the gun issue even more difficult and complicated. It is a mission impossible, or is it ?, to tell the Americans to stop playing with guns, the Russians to stop drinking volka, or the Canadians to stop playing hockey ?!
