| Bush to Visit Canada on Nov. 30 |
| 2004-11-17 |
| President Bush will make his first official visit to Canada on Nov. 30, meeting Prime Minister Paul Martin for talks ranging from security for the world's longest undefended border to commerce between these major trading partners, officials said Tuesday. The visit will focus on ``ways to build on our excellent cooperation'' on terrorism, , cross-border security, democracy and economic growth, said White House press secretary Scott McClellan. Martin said he hopes to deal with trade issues stemming from mad cow disease and the softwood lumber imports. Some other topics Bush is likely to address include military staffing in Afghanistan and training and nation-building aid in Iraq. Since taking office, Martin has worked to improve ties with Washington and end sometimes outspoken criticism of Bush by some members of the ruling Liberal party. |

| #6 What they failed to mention is that he will be visiting them as their new C-In-C, after a squad of Marines over runs the county on November 29th. |

| #4 We should tell Dubya to take a .45 ACP - no Secret Service needed - and when the Canuck Moonbats believe they see an opportunity and try to arrest him for "war crimes", he should bag a few and bring 'em home for stuffing. Much more fun and edifying than shooting geese - and they'll prolly look pretty spiffy mounted on the walls of Camp David cabins. |

| #3 Look on the bright side. Bush may give away the goods, but in return, he will make it so that Canada will have to keep all those liberals who fled north after the election. |

| #2 I'll be holding my nose on that visit. "W" will probable secure as much out of Paul Martin, as he has out of his old pal Vicente Fox on the other side! Two nice warm cozy friends (with ten foot poles)hidden under the beds. |
