How much security does our PM even get? I imagine he has a few security officers that travel with him, but certainly no snipers! Ah, the joys of being a less important country, save money on this kind of stuff.Kinda funny.
I believe they did. I don't think being black is that much of a concern up here, just not that big of a deal.Freakzilla wrote:I don't think it's as much a matter of being less important but being less black.AToE wrote:Back on topic - I think it's hilarious how much security the Pres gets, secret routes, snipers on roofs etc - our leader we just leave to the wolves.

Did they do that for other presidents?
No, but racist rednecks here might think it would be easier to take a shot at him in Canada. I'm not saying there are Canadian racists who want him assassinated (maybe there is, I don't know.)A Thing of Eternity wrote:I believe they did.

Actually you might be right, and there is a white-nationalist community here too, it's just much smaller than the US one (stormfront.org has a seperate forum for Canadian bigotsFreakzilla wrote:No, but racist rednecks here might think it would be easier to take a shot at him in Canada.

). That said, I think this is pretty much just the kind of protection the pres gets - isn't it normal for them to have secret routs and decoy vehicles and snipers when in foreign countries?Now if he can only remember those campaign promises!Omphalos wrote:It's so refreshing having a president who does not have to be reminded where Canada is.

Thanks, I've heard it was a lot higher.as for the security, i remember some commentators saying that this was about twice the security as Bush's visit to Canada.
Hmm, 50 new prvinces would be interesting... Maybe then they'd let us watch TV shows online...Freakzilla wrote:"The good news is, we've solved the financial crisis!
