RE: constitutional rights may not apply in some areas



I am watching my country (Canada) slowly (but not slow enough) turn into a 
annexed part of the USA.  If they had rolled tanks in it would have been 
no 
different. It makes me sick.  I am old enough to remember a Canada that 
was 
different.
Thanks Free Trade.
