I agree with you. If an artist achieves something great, I am the winner and anyone else who can enjoy it. “sheer hatred for the good” I think it was Voltaire who said “the enemy of the good is the best”. Glad you love Sam Cooke. I think you should give Rod Stewart some credit as well as Steve Perry. He clearly went to bed with Sam’s records and does him justice. Sam Cooke had the dumbest death in rock history but was a wonderful singer. I wrote a song for him. I can’t sing it quite the way he would. It’s called “Lonesome Baby Blue”.

You sound as bright as some of the canadians who suggest we boycott america because it's full of gun totin', God fearin' zealotrous hicks. Both unarguably stupid viewpoints, considering you're 86% of our external trade and we're the majority holder of your imported oil. Or would you like to boycott our oil sand petroleum imports to the US, too? Next time jump-start your brain before typing. mhb23re at gmail d0t calm Xioding, brilliant commentary.

There was a reason, after all, that America threw the Crown out...to Canada. Time to boycott Canada. Get a congressan or Senator in the US to remove it from "most favored nation" status. Words only take you so far. Canada has always been a quiet tyranny, and it suprises me that people are suprised by this. There was a reason, after all, that America threw the Crown out…to Canada.

If they truely felt this passionate about what there doing they would have filed civil or criminal suit in a real court of law. They do show signs of "smarts" as they knew a real judge would laugh them out of court. Welcome to the new Canada - Guilty before right of trial. This is my mind is nothing more than a terrorist attack.

Yikes! If Canada's government has to have 'evolving law' (a terrifying concept by which anyone may find himself a target for any reason), Canada could at least evolve laws which support either truth or free speech...! “evolving law” the young lady says… Yikes!
