    I guess you could say I'm patriotic. Wouldn't die for my country at the moment, it's a bit too messed up right now. We just have to get rid of Bonsai John Howard and we might be okay.

    In a sad attempt at a joke, John Howard is Bonsai because he's a little Bush

    I'm not truly patriotic, though I am appreciative of everything that my country has done and is doing for me.

    I don't consider myself a patriot because I cannot approve of blindly attaching yourself to any cause, be it a nation, a political party, a religion, or something else. I think such unthinking, reflexive loyalties have resulted in many of the world's problem, from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to those misinformed environmentalists who think that using paper results in the destruction of forests.

    Question everything.

    I'm definately patriotic. Not so much that I deny anything bad about Canada, specifically our army, or lack of. I know so many people who say we could win a war against the US. When that happens, I just want to smack them accross the face. WHAT ARMY COULD WE USE?!?! Our army sure is a formidably foe, both soldiers, that is. ;) To sum it all up, Canada is the greatest country on earth, why else do we have so many fereigners? :p

    I am patriotic at best i'd say. If the call came, i would die for my family, home, and country. But i'd rather go back to the medievil age, and fight with a sword in my hand. Im not the best soldier out there, but hell, i'll fight!
