Canadian Connection
Find a Conversation

For awhile I have been given pause by a few Canadian posters on this Board who seem to have an inordinate interest in US politics, not - as they sometimes protest - as neutral observers hoping to learn more BUT as vociferous "contributors" who seem to take inordinate delight in drive-by-snide/partisan rhetorical flourish. Why, I wondered, would citizens of another country (with plenty of problems of its own) choose to spend so much time and effort posting on a Board dedicated to US politics.
Then I discovered Heather Mallick - a socialist "democrat" who writes for the Canadian press. Her articles regarding the Republican convention were quite interesting. Terms like "white trash" and "hick" abound. . . disdain for the majority of US citizens and their political leaders was palpable. Interesting, much of her insulting rhetoric sounded quite familiar. . .it had, indeed, been echoed on this Board.
Reading Mallick, it finally dawned: there is a socialist movement and it crosses borders and it is very interested in US politics because it fears any political trend that might impact its global agenda. No, I am not a conspiracy theorist BUT it does pay to know the perspective from which others approach a matter, particularly if they are engaging in gratuitous "advice".
So, if you have also paused to question the perspective of some of our northern neighbors, google Heather Mallick and "white trash" and gain some insight.
